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.
