You may have misunderstood my question.  I am not looking to install PS 4 on
Unix, I am installing PS 4 on Windows 2003 Server.   We are looking at
replacing our terminal emulation product, WRQ Reflections, which is
installed on the windows server as an application.  A couple of products we
are looking at for replacing Reflections are Ericoms Powerterm or Seagull
Software Bluezone.  I was looking for feedback on either of those two
products.  The same product would be used on any enduser that has a desktop,
non citrix.  We have about 325 licensed user for Reflection at the moment.
