I'd like to know if there is an X-Windows server that can run under MS-Windows. I know of the existence of Deskview/X, but that appeared to not run MS-Windows on the same machine, although it could display MS-Windows that was running on another machine. Am I right? The situation is that I use a Sun at work running X. I must be able to use X in order to run the applications on the (Sun/Unix) network. However, I would like to be able to use some of the same software at work as I do at home (like a personal information manager). Sooooo, if I could run X on a (suitably souped up) PC (any suggestions in that regard?) AND run MS-Windows, I'd have a nice work environment. I MIGHT be able to get my boss to spring for a PC to replace my Sun -- the chances of having a PC in addition to the Sun are around nil. What can the folks on the net tell me? I appreciate any/all information you can send my way. -- David A. Bright dab@Bright.MN.ORG (home) Secure Computing bright@SCTC.COM (work)
