X under DOS?

Is there any program that will allow me to emulate an
X terminal on a DOS machine? I want to be able to connect
with the university system with X, all I need it for is 
simpler stuff, and I just am tired of the plain look of the
stnadard TTY interface... If there isnt anything available,
it's not tragic or anything, but it would be nice if it was.

DesqView /X is one, XVision is another.  Both requires some serious
$$$ because you will need a SLIP or PPP connection to your host
and not a regular tty dialup link.  In DesqView /X (which is what
I am more familiar with) you will need DesqView /X runtime and Network
Manager, FTP Software TCP/IP or other recommended TCP/IP vendors in order
to establish a link to the host.  You will have to discuss with your sysop
on whether he/she will set  you up a link.

Good Luck....
