Thanks again. I understand it more clearly now.
Just one thing I wonder is, ColorX / WindowMaker is also running
on my Quadra800 (NetBSD 4.99.3) without any trouble.
I don't remember which version of X sets is installed, :p I think
it is not from 1.6X binary sets, maybe..
... I also don't know the merit to use 3.1 X binary sets, I just
like "new" :)

Thanks for the info about Links2 browser.
I'm excited to see how it works on my new ColorX :)
