You are quite right, Matt. X is complex but not anymore complex than
all this networking jazz I just learned over the last 6 months getting X
running on the amiga. There is still alot of graphics work I need to do
to get the performance up to my level of expectation.

I do need to clarify one point though. Commodore is not working on X.
It is being done by an independant organization and at this time is
not planned on being part of any system software from Commodore.
