Windows X Server, Run Linux and Unix on Windows Desktop. WinaXe is the pre-eminent X Windows environment for the Windows 95, 98, 2000, NT and Windows XP platforms. It enables easy access to different operating systems. It transparently connects different operating systems and their applications together. You need not worry where these applications are physically located on your network. WinaXe brings remote UNIX applications to your PC with each in a separate window. There are no discernible differences when compared to local PC applications which run simultaneously with those from the host remote system. WinaXe links to all UNIX hosts including Sun, Digital, Linux, HP-UX, SCO Unix, IBM (AIX) and many others. The strongest feature of this environment is that it is all happening concurrently and is totally interactive. You can copy and paste text and images from one application to another simply by using your mouse and transfer data among heterogenous computer environments with ease. WinaXe takes nothing from your PC, instead it brings another operating world alongside. WinaXe is a powerful software package, which provides a cost effective way to transform your PC into a powerful X Window System workstation.
