Just had to throw in my vigorous agreement here:

X is far more flexible than the M$ GUI solution - that's cuz X is really
just a linux app (OK, i'm oversimplifying, but it basically is), whereas the

M$ GUI is part of their macrokernel.

I would also like to point out that if you think windows is good looking,
you should see Sawfish running over helix-gnome.  Now there's a good looking

GUI.

The only complaint I could possibly have is that X windows sometimes fails
to be as responsive as the M$ GUI (from the user point of view).  That's a
side effect of the fact that it's (basically) an application, and runs
inside a normal linux process/thread-space. (although 99% of the time you
wouldn't notice.)

Cheers,
Ben.
