- Yes we do have X11R4 running under AmigaDOS. You will need a minimum of
- 1M of memory to support 1 bitplane display and networking.

- With the the Commodore AS225 plus the beta cslip software you can
- get your Amiga connected to the oterh suns on your network (assuming
- one of them is running slip/cslip also) and nfs mount, telnet, ftp,
- and also connect to X11 clients on the sun with the X11R4 package.
- You need to run minimum of 9600 baud for reasonable throughput.
