NeXT should support X, to convince X users to swith to NeXT and also
to provide support for using the other machines which we have on
our local networks.  The best solution would be for NeXT to develope,
or licence NeXTStep terminal emulation software so that we can use
our Suns, Decstations, 386, 486, etc machinces as terminal for our
NeXT machines.
