I am interested in getting comments, criticism, experiences, etc on using
a X terminal over a serial line.  What is the performance?  Is one
manufacture's terminal better than another?  Worth the money?  If you had to
do it over would you have gotten something else?

I saw in the Frequently Asked Questions that the Graphon OptimaX 200 is
""Best available solution for RS232C lines.""  Is this still the case?

Any info you can pass on will be appreciated.  Thanks.  I will summarize.

Thanks,
