A chemist friend of mine is very interested in hooking up his MAC SE 30 to our
network of Sun's and SG machines as an X Windows Terminal.  He is interested in
doing so with a large screen color display on the SE 30.  The questions:

1.  Can you hook an ethernet controller and a large screen color display to an
    SE 30 at the same time.  (Only one slot, as I understand it - I am no MAC
    person.)  If so, could you recommend some (cheap??) hardware for both.

2.  What is good software for running a MAC as an X windows server?  He wants
    to run X11 apps like Mathematica on our workstations and have output appear
    on the Mac.

Please send directly to me as this is a rush purchase and I will summarize.
