In having a couple of clients wanting to run Linux as their Desktop
OS. I had to hunt down a scoansi terminal emulator.  Their are not
many to choose from and are very hard to find but.

The winner

1. Pericom's TeemX www.pericom-usa.com  XWindows based (gui) good
scoansi support. Wyse too an lots of others.  Very fast and stable.
Lot of scripting options. The only real option so far. Install could
be better.

2. Century Software's TERM for Desktop Linux. www.censoft.com  No gui,
very fast but criptic.  They have been getting alot of interest in a
Gui based version and may release such a product in future.

3. Ericom's PowerTerm Interconnect. www.ericom.com  Slow.  It is a
java based emulator despite what the tech reps may tell you and the
speed shows it.

Any addittions to this list would be great.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
