Thanks to everyone who replied to my request for info on experiences with cubX.

Without exception, the replies I received were very positive.  Most replies
included comments to the effect that the server is quite fast.  Support is also
a strong point.  The most interesting feature of the package IMHO is that it
allows you to run two visually-separate screens; you switch between them
by sliding the cursor to the edge of the current screen.  That is, there are two
virtual screens that you can flip between.

The North American distributor is:
