I use Hummingbird Software's eXceed on an HP Vectra 486 to run HP-UX
applications off a server. It works fine, both under Windows for Workgroups
3.11 and Windows 95. I'm not sure about the cost (several hundred dollars?)
but it is fast and quite stable. I would recommend 16 MB of RAM if you are
going to use it, though. Hummingbird has a Web site where you can get
 information
on their products (Sorry, I don't have the URL, but you can look them up
at http://www.ecola.com/techcorp/.)
