    Why not locate this free version of X-Windows, and the free X-Windows
    .GL player, and go find out how well the animations play back?

    Don't you have animation software floating around for the NeXT in
    the PD or shareware departments? The widget has been around for
    years now, so surely someone has done something along these lines.
