that's exactly what I'm talking about =) It stands to reason if you ask me though, we do tend to be socially inept, with a higer than average intelligence.
another example could be runway models - on average, they seem to be beautiful, yet not quite so smart... maybe they are:
str: 5 int: 10 wis: 10 dex: 15 cha: 60
=) Surely someone else before has made the realization that maybe role-playing charater generation isn't taht far off of the real world =)
The article a week or so ago mentioned that the part of the brain that allows for "social" functioning in an autistic person is smaller than that of the average person. I would ahve to say that it does make sense that maybe autism should simply be defined as a non-average distribution of brain functions. Basically, we got 100 points to allocate to our character, and autistics only used 10 towards user interface, and the other 90 went toward processor power. Sound right to you?

Actually, There are X Servers (and very possibly clients) for Windows, and OS/2. It would surprise me if BEOS didn't have some sort of X Server.
IMHO, X IS the way to go, it is a solid proven standard.
