But Xremote is widely used and also available on PCs and in some terminal
servers. Serial Xpress may be technically better but is it going to get
the market acceptance that will make it worthwhile? I personally will
prefer a product also available on the PCs, while waiting for some
standards committee to define some international standard which might
or might not be an existing de facto standard and might or might not
then take over the world. I know there is such work going on somewhere,
but I don't remember the details.
