What about the "desktop environment"? Everytime I see screenshots of them I shudder. Not to diss the Vaxen as such, but I like graphical environments, as in more like a terminal multiplexer for some xterms, or such.

Also, what is that about bus compatibilty with 68k? What was that for, where can I read more about that?

You could run DECwindows (like X) if you had a graphics card. I knew a guy with a VAXstation 4000 that did this.
