Does anybody have experience using MacX over AppleTalk (at the Mac end)
instead of using some sort of Mac-Ethernet?

In particular, I am thinking of having a Mac SE run MacX as a
X-windows server, with the client running on some other Unix
machine.  The Unix machine is connected to an Ethernet which has
a router to a AppleTalk network that contains the Mac SE.

Is this possible?  How is performance?  How does this impact
the other users on the AppleTalk?

Thank you,
