I don't know anything about SCO or Interactive. I have ESIX. To me it works
fine. X windows was slooooooow until I put a 80387 in. I have a 1542 SCSI
controller with a maxtor drive (I don't recall the model number, it's 
about 234MB formatted). The SCSI driver is slow put it's O.K. if 
your machine does not swap alot. I have 8MB memory. That's what you need
at least if you want to use X windows. 

I heard that Interactive is faster in general. I know that X windows is 
faster, I seen it.

I don't know Anything about SCO.
