Yep, that's what the XC claimed when X11R6.3 came out.  Remarkably
dumb idea.  Shows a complete lack of understanding of what type of
problems Java and the technologies based on Javascript and CSS
(``dynamic HTML'') are trying to solve.

(A wide-area round-trip for every expose event andevery keystroke.
Sheesh.)

Jim's example is more convincing, though.  Are there any video
projectors that embed an X server?
