I can't recall how my old Cube's TeXview looked for comparison, but as
far as good screen image of PostScript fonts, xdvi's greyscale
renderings blow away Adobe Type Manager (inside Microsoft Word on
Win95) which uses two colors: black and white.  (I run both on the
same monitor on my Pentium.)

I'm still hoping someone can tell me how to get proper overstriking
with xdvi...
