I just got through reading an analysis of ATT's 7300 UNIX PC.
It looks like a pretty decent machine. It doesn't sound 
like its windowing abilities and resources are as good as the macs.

However, it does give us a standard Mouse-window-icon interface for 
UNIX!!!
It seems to be that any ambitious folk out there could write a terminal
package for the mac which when hooked up to a unix machine would give the 
user essentially the same environment as the PC 7300, thus givin us the best of 
both worlds.
