There are said (by Sun) to be two or three ports of OpenWindows either available now or in progress. Contact Anthony Flynn at Open Vistas International (anthony@ovi.com) for more information. (originally they said 35, but perhaps they meant 3.5) OpenWindows source is available - commercially, it costs about $5,000 for the server, including TypeScaler and the toolkits; deskset (filemgr etc) is another $25,000; ToolTalk is $40,000 or so.
