- Would the same hold true for an older 700/X X-terminal? I've inherited a
- 700/X terminal which at boot-up says that it has 1024K DRAM. Running VUE
- on this is a pain, as I get warnings about "low memory" whenever I open a
- second xterm|hpterm|aixterm. Worse, moving a window too rapidly seems to
- crash the X-terminal. Maybe it takes LaserJet type memory?
