I'm in the "choose a workstation" dilemma!  My only
experience is with NCD X-terminals, so I need some advice.

What do you think of the DECstation 3100 for developing
OpenLook software?  
What are the problems & benefits of using the DECstation,
running Ultrix, in an OpenLook (or non-Motif) environment?
If you've used it, have you used the Input Synthesis 
Extension?  
Which server did you use (DECwindows, X11R4, AT&T, etc.) ?

How is the DECstation in general?  
(Be as subjective as you like; I am! :-)

Thanks in advance,
