Well, Ron, as explained elsewhere, our display gets hard to read pretty easily.
Even 80x24 may be too small for continued use; it's something that will need to
be tested.

I'm with Charles on this one. I do a lot of work with Plan 9 systems
that don't use rio or any wm for that matter. On those systems, the
network is everything. Maybe you're not going to run connected.

But, in our case, we had systems w/o a graphical display, that I
needed to run connected, and I would have been very unhappy doing
those systems with anything but Plan 9.

I see your point re the display, but based on our experience, I still
think Linux is going to limit you in the end.

That said, there's lots more tty eye candy for Linux these days ...
some things are truly easier with Linux. Just none of the network
things.

thanks

ron
