Forgive me if this is a FAQ, but some people in our department are 
considering hooking Mac IIfx's with A/UX to a Sun Sparcstation over 
9600 baud telephone lines with SLIP.  Is it tolerable to run X-
windows in this way?  The thought of transfering a 256x256 image is 
sort of scary.

Thanks for suggestions or comments.
