- XS3 does not run on SVR4 because no one has built it. The functionality
- of XS3 is being merged into XFree86 (so you get all of our other
- wonderful enhancements :->), but we're no where near ready promising
- any dates yet.

- However, if you're getting Dell SVR4, it comes with a server for the
- ATI Ultra boards (courtesy of Thomas Roell).
