Looking Glass is actually produced by Visix. Intergraph and Visix have
signed an agreement that allows Intergraph to sell Looking Glass with their
machines.

I have seen Looking Glass on a Sun system and I was very impressed with
the interface, so much so that I plan to use it in a number of areas.

If you want more information I suggest you give Visix a call. The person
I have dealt with there is Rick Willhite and their number is 703-841-5840.
You can also reach Rick via e-mail at uunet!visix!rick.
