Well, at work I we have NCD's PC-XWare which is all nice and fine
until you start running a multihead Win2k box - then it breaks badly.

But otherwise, its a nice stable X server.

I used to use it before I managed to convince my manager to let me
pinch a machine to use as a dedicated linux box.

Fortunately he told me to grab one of the testing boxes before it
`disappeared' - so I did.  It just happens to be one of the 4 fastest
desktop machines in the office.  I lucked out bigtime.
