HMX was introduced before the company deployed PowerPC based Xterminal. ThinStar was WinCE WBT. It was actually made with two variations; one equipped withVr4300 and anther with "MMX Pentium-compatible." Quite myteriously the company attributed their products as lower-end for Vr and higher-end for Pentium. The company released later QED52xx Xterminal to fulfill the customer demands (not all people on this planet want to have Windows). More interestly, the company brought SA-1110 portable driven portable WBT early this year and recently has sold away the entire ThinStar WBT line to another company. Toru Nishimura
