My department is trying to determine whether we should get an X terminal
or a cheap sun to access a TAAC board that is in a Sun 4/150. I know it
sounds strange, basically we want to do some 3d imaging and send the TAAC
video to a monitor...  Does this sound reasonable? Would it be possible to
write X applications that use the Xterminals mouse and keyboard, but they
would also use the TAAC to display images?

I would gratefully apreciate any suggestions you may have.

Thanks,
Brian.
