I have been asked numerious times why someone should purchase and X term when some workstations (especially diskless) are just as cheap). I always give the standard "A workstation requires a sys admin, but an X term does not" I would be interested in hearing from other people as to their thoughts on this issue. Quantitative information would be also appreciated (cost of workstation vs x term) -- Louis McDonald Internet: louis@aerospace.aero.org The Aerospace Corporation 213-336-8914
