That was definitely not clear to me. In my head, he's running some bog 
standard telnet client on a system where he probably is using some 
windowing system, on which he is running a terminal application (think 
xterm). What kind of emulation that terminal application provides I 
don't know, but what he should be asking would be if some other terminal 
application than "Xyzzy" would give him a better experience connected to 
the HP machine. Telnet have nothing to do with it.
