I tried a couple of them. The best (in my opinion) is Metrolink Motif.
RedHat sells exactly the same copy of Metrolink one (that's why they
both come with XRT PDS). Cost $199.00 from Metrolink and cheaper from
RedHat. (There is a trick to get Metrolink Motif for only $79, so called
competitive trade-in, check their homepage).
Xi Graphics (www.xig.com) has a decent version for less money.
Infomagic is a little more buggy but cheap.
Don't recommend SWIM.
Good luck.
