A friend of mine has a client who wants to build X on top of Microsoft
Windows (or the Presentation Manager).  It sounds as if it would be
very big and very slow, even on a 386 or 486 machine.

Has this been done? Can it be done? Should it be done? What would it take?

Any hints are welcome -- post or e-mail.
