The title of your message is "Microsoft Windows on UNIX", not at all what
your article describes. Perhaps a more accurate description is as follows:
"Incredibly expensive Windowing terminal for Microsoft Windows". This is very
much different from running the Microsoft Windows environment on top of Unix.

Your product sounds a whole lot like that of Systime's ( strange, that name 
sounds like it came out of your address :^l ). There is nothing wrong with 
the systime product, it is very nice as far as Intelligent terminals go... 
Every company ought to sell one! Even Us :^l (ours is called Power Windows,
based on the systime product, it was enhanced for use with Office Power OAS).
