I think so.  After all, I'm running X on a IIsi which is slower than a
P600.  It's useable, yes.

Huh?  What do you mean by count the processor cycles?

What's CLI?

BTW, X11 is X Window System Version 11, so you don't have to say
"X-Window".  The correct abbreviations include "X", "X11", and
"X11R6".
