        I'm very excitied about XVT too, and have been following it.  It
won an award in Byte magazine as a "best new product".  It was reviewed in 
a '88 or '89 issue of Byte.  They thought it was great - the only
criticism was that it took (of necessity) a "lowest common demominator"
aproach to the API.
        I think any Mac programmer would get excited about a product that
lets his code be "compatible" with the wider computing world of Intel and
Unix boxes...
