Televideo owns 15% of Microport and sells their products.  I called Microport
yesterday (21 JUL 87) and X is not shipping or even in beta.  Don't hold your
breath.  Microport formally pulled support from GKS (after a scuffle with
GSS, the porters) after saying "any day now" for 6 months.  When I see it I'll
believe it.
