Yes I have it. 2. What I have has some bugs. 3. I did not write it. 4. I cannot give it out. 5. I expect the people at McGill will announce it when they are done. 6. X on a NeXT is like t*ts on a boar -- not real useful. What makes us special (better) is NeXTStep. Anyone can run X, but only a NeXT (or RS-6000) can run NeXTStep. My personal feeling is, X is a neat toy, but if you but a NeXT, run NeXTStep. I know not everyone will agree, & I don't mean to start a religious war, but I don't want my comment that one CAN run X to be taken as though one SHOULD. -- Dave Strout NeXT Campus Consultant -- Miami University. -> The above ideas are mine only, unless you like them.
