We were thinking of using Mac X to turn our Mac's into X-terminals.
We would be running the clients on Suns.  The Sun ethernet LAN is
hooked up to the AppleTalk LAN via a Kinetics Fastpath box.
 
Does this sound like a workable way to make our Macs be display servers
for clients running on Suns?  Would the AppleTalk LAN bandwidth be
adequate for X protcol traffic and for Mac X to run Ok?  One of the
applications we'd like to run this way is Frame.
  
Any comments/suggestions on this scheme would be greatly appreciated!
