We sell and support a product that enables Mac windows to display
on an X-based workstation. It is called Xport and works by turning
the Apple Macintosh into an X-window system client. (Xport was
recently mentioned in one of the Mac magazines -- perhaps that's
where you saw it.)

Here is a quick list of features:

  --Allows any X server workstation user to execute
    Macintosh applications
  
  --Lets users cut and paste between X and Macintosh
    applications

  --Supports MOTIF, DEC Windows, and OpenLook window
    managers


This product is shipping and has been fully tested. To run,
you need a Mac with TCP/IP and an ethernet card. Price is $495.

For more information, send mail to xport@qualix.com or
call 1-800-245-UNIX (415-572-0200).
