We're putting together some plans for introducing a Unix box in a lab we
work with, and mixing "traditional" workstations running DECwindows with
the existing '386 boxes already 
there (yes, I know they'll be slow and small!) and Mac IIcis with large
monitors and 8Mb.  To do the X-stuff on the Macs, we'll be looking at
MacX and eXodus, I guess; my question is, do either/both of these -HAVE-
to be run under A/UX, or can we stay in Multifinder under MacOS and run
them as an application?  Would we -WANT- to run A/UX vs. MacOS, even if
we didn't have to?  Why or why not?  Can you tell I'm pretty new to the
Unix world? (-:

Thanks for any comments; e-mail will keep from cluttering the net until
I can summarize...     ...Ted
