What I want to know is, what advantages do I get from using X11R4 and Motif 1.1?
I understand they are "better", but what does that REALLY mean? Is is faster?
smaller? prettier? I assume I would still be using IBM's X11R3 server, so I
would not be getting the X11R4 server improvements and extensions?
Most important, are these advantages important enough that I can lose IBM's
support for bugs. Right now when I have an X or Motif bug, I report it to IBM
and they eventually will get fixed. IBM's support may not be the fastest, or
best, but it is a lot better than not having it.
