  I was reading that Locus just released version 2.0 of Xsight that is
compiled with Rational Tech. compilier which will all you to run up to
16meg extended memory. They also went to 11.3. It looks to be a good
low end type X Terminal under dos. Couple things I wonder about. What
eithernet cards it supports. And what they are going to do about a 
file server. I would perfer NFS (even with it's flaws) something like
FTP's Interdrive. I read somewhere they where going to support TCF.
Can NFS and TCF reside on the same system with out any conflicts?
Has anyone tried a NFS client/server in conjunction with Locus 
Xwindows talking on a eithernet to a 386ix X-windows server?
