The product you refer to is Sunview II. It is an X toolkit that will sit
on top of Sun's X/NeWS product. Sun is also working on an Open Look
toolkit. The only reason for Sunview II is all of the Sunview applications
that are already out there. From what I hear, if you have the time and
money, I would strongly consider rewriting the applications with the Open
Look toolkit as Sunview II executables will be **HHUUGGEE!!**  [[ They're
already *HUGE*.  How much "huger" can they get?  --wnl ]]

Anyway, word I heard is that this product line should be out in Q2 '89. If
there is anyone from Sun who wants to confirm, deny, or update, feel free.
