    I have the same question. I want to use IBM PC's as remote displays
    for our RT and maybe our Ridge computers. I know there is X for the IBM PC
    but where do I get and what hardware do I need, ie XT or AT, displays?

    I know people have asked about the Mac before but I have never seen an
    answer. I guess the problem is with an ether net connect?

    Thanks,
