I have had a Visual X-19 (don't know what the "Turbo" version is . . .) for a
little over a month.

There _is_ a way to get it to crash, but you have to work very hard at it.  I
am helping them test their server ROMS and hence it's sort of my business to
make them crash.  In everyday use, it's almost impossible.

The screen is bright, crisp, and right on par with the head on our Sun
workstations.  The server implementation is _much_ faster than the server on
our Sun 3/150.

I have a 1MB RAM version of this machine.  For anyone doing anything
interesting, I think that 2MB would be the desirable minimum.  As far as that
goes, I have told Visual I don't think they should even sell one with less than
that.

It would be very hard to go wrong with this unit, as far as I'm concerned.
