The January issue of Byte talks about X Windows, the windowing system from MIT.
I've used it on Unix, and thought that was the only place it ran, but apparently
it's supposed to be a general purpose windowing system, and servers for it can
be written on any machine with a good enough screen.

Does anyone know if there is a server written to run under Microsoft Windows?  
It seems a natural feature for any terminal emulator to support.
