  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is the final missing piece for making OS X a serious scientific workstation. At last I can get rid of my SGIs. ($12K apiece 9 years ago). This is an excellent example of Apple listening to the needs of its customers and doing the Right Thing.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Apple's X windowing system works as advertised, though I tend to use OroborOSX more often. Don't confuse X11 and X applications with Mac's aqua (as the reviewer did who complained about X11's lack of Mac copy/paste and drag/drop). They are two different things, and the X windowing system takes some getting used to.
