Steve,

We did some work getting our fax product to display incoming faxes on a 3489
a long time ago.

As far as i recall it would display tiff images.  The interface was in c and
was fairly flexible in where you could display the image, the zoom etc.
Once on screen you could pan the image (using the mouse).  All in all it
worked fine as a green screen plus kind of thing.

Problem was you're the first person I've heard of who admits to owning one.
No one seemed interested in IBM's fantastic GUI breakthrough.
