Xwindow System In linux
The X Window System is a distributed, graphical method of working with computers, often used on Unix operating systems such as Linux but also on Macintosh, Microsoft Windows, and others. The name is usually shortened to just ‘X’, but is often incorrectly called ‘X Windows’.
One of the interesting things about X is that it was designed so that a program could be run on one computer and its graphical display could be on another. What this means is that if you have a reasonably powerful computer (say, an older Pentium 120) and a couple of slow 486 computers, they could all run the latest multimedia version of the Netscape Navigator package. The programs would be running on the fast computer and the displays would be on the slow ones. Since there is not so much work for the slow computers to do they might in fact appear to be quite fast. Good design counts for a lot!
