I'm using the MetroX server from Red Hat.  Installation and setup is 
quick.  Performance is good.  In my opinion, it was worth the money.

I did download the Xinside server demo and tried running it without too 
much luck.  I could never get it out of VGA mode.  I don't know if it was 
the code or me causing the problem.  (I have read other posts stating a 
problem with Xinside + Matrox + Compaq which is the combination that I 
have.)
