Actually, the IBM VGA X software I saw wasn't TOO bad, although it did have
a ethernet line running to it.  But seriously... I just can't see the 1200x900
Sun SPARCstation1 I'm running X on right now being faithfully reproduced on 
a 64 in 320x200 mode.  Maybe an Xterm for the 128 in interlace mode, though....
