Plus, they appear to have stopped releasing their info about 3 years ago. My
old X*Press developer's kit also has language saying that if you're going to
distribute your software, you must run it by their quality-assurance people
first.

Is this the end of useful X*Press service? I really like being able to telnet
home from work and read X*Press; can't do that on a 286 running their software.
Sigh.
