The concept of using a PC as an X11 display is nice, however the PC
architecture does not lend itself to this type of networked environment.
The best bet right now is an X-terminal.  There are several on the market
right now at about $2k.  The PC will be more of a hinderance than a help.
The PC's performance is less than desireable and even the X-terminals
are no speed demons.  Good luck....
