Rats.. I do something like the reverse of this using the 3B1 as a terminal
with an rlogin-like program that connects via starlan-TLI to any/all of
6 3B2's on the net.  I usually fire up the connection with a shell script
that uses windy to create a full-screen window with the name of the host
that window is connected to.  Then I can use  and pop to any
of the 3B2's with all of the screen contents kept intact.  Perhaps not
quite up to x-windows, but I like it.  Other that this, our 3B1's are
mostly just running as DOS file servers and can be replaced but I really
hate to spend the $$$ after having these machines only a year or less.
