Point of fact:  I am using an HP330 with only (!)  4MB RAM, running
version 6.5 of HP-UX with X11.  I just came back from a reboot.  I had
started a terminal process to an HP3000, and immediately afterward,
triggered an X client to read the mail.

After 10 minutes of waiting, I rebooted, as EVERYTHING was locked.
Deadly Embrace with the LAN (I'm running discless over LAN)?? This in a
"true multitasking" system. 

Don't try this one at home, kids. These are trained apologists for the
way things _should_ work.
