Date: Sun 29-Aug-1989 17:24:35 From: Unknown Subject: Re: What do you have against X11? Gosling and Rosenthal of Sun Microsystems have been comparing X-Windows to Sun's NeWS for years. If one substitutes "Display PostScript + NeXTStep" for "NeWS" much of this analysis applies. Sun, probably Bill Joy, used to be almost viciously opposed to X Windows, but now embrace it for commercial reasons. This analysis is given in the recently published "NeWS" book. >From: tbray@watsol.waterloo.edu (Tim Bray)
