I'd like to know the experiences of anyone who has done this.  I have 
heard of Mac front ends and external kernels, but haven't heard of anyone
doing the same thing in the IBM/Windows world.  I would like to do this,
since my pc is hooked up to the Internet, and one of the machines on 
campus has the mma kernel.

Would I have to run X-Windows?  Or could I just stay in the MS Windows/DOS
environment?  Is there any extra software needed to set this up?  

Alternatively, can mma be run from a Tektronix 4105 terminal?  Thanks.
