I have seen a few articles describing X terminals; low cost terminals
that run an X server and are used to access computing via the network.

I would like to use one of these X terminal from home to access my Sun
workstation at work over a dialup line.

I have seen references to SLIP and 9600 baud modems but I am quite
ignorant about such things.  I would appreciate hearing an explanation
of how this works, recommendations about X terminals or modems,
or best of all, I would like to hear from somebody who has successfully 
tried to do this!
