We evaluated both PC-XView with XRemote and XVision with Xremote, and we
chose XVision over PC-XView, for two reasons:  first, a bug in the PC-XView
software prevented us from running our custom applications; second, the
XVision product had some nifty features that were missing from PC-XView,
such as real icons for the X windows, and a bunch more monitoring features.
We didn't notice any big performance differences between the two.  We were
mostly running Sun's DeskSet applications with some of our own custom Open
Look applications.

Note that we only tried the Windows versions of these products.
