I have been looking into this for our QA dept. I saw a demo of a product
here at the institute called HCL-eXceed Plus, from Hummingbird
Communications ltd. It was used with FTP's PC/TCP product. HCL-eXceed requires:
     o   An IBM AT or 386 based PC
     o   640K RAM below 1 Mb.
     o   minimum 1 Mb RAM above 1 Mb.
     o   EGA or VGA
     o   Microsoft mouse
     o   hard disk (no size spec.)
     o   network card that handles tcp/ip
   
We found that the system above worked well with most of the X systems at
the institute. I'm not sure of the cost for a site license, I will be
investigating this issue soon. 
Hummingbird is in Ontario Canada and can be reached at (416)470-1207.
