Does anyone know when X-windows will be support on the Apple MAC
SE? How much memory will they need to run this? The system will have
1 Meg of memory and a 20 MB hard disk.
We are in a very competitive situation at a large university for
a deal worth over 1300 workstations and are looking for some knock
off on the Apple proposal.
The customer is requiring is X11 release 3, word processing,
spreadsheet and a simple database. We think they are looking at
Ashton-Tates framework. We are recommending Andrew.
Apple is recommending a SE running the MAC operating system and
pushing X-windows as a future. We would like to know if and when
this will be available

White Pine Software has an X server for the Mac - I believe it's called eXodus and was recently announced in the Mac trade press. I don't have the details you ask for, but they shouldn't be too hard to find. We're recommending Andrew? | |||||

Part of the Apple future would have to include more memory. I can not
imagine that they would be able to do much with X with just 1MB.
