This is a nit and I suspect it is something unchangeable -- like
trying to get the press to use `crackers' instead of `hackers' --
but...  X WINDOWS is *not* a trademark of anyone.  The X WINDOW SYSTEM
is, however...  It is a pain to see large company's (DEC included in
some publications) getting this wrong.  Help stamp out the term
X-Windows
