Low-Bandwidth X
pinzari self-promotes with this: "What about running a full-featured X desktop on your Yopy? Or having a virtual Linux machine, running at your ISP site, being accessed by a TV or PS2? I know Slashdot has treated this more then once and I remember a really interesting thread a few months ago. I think that most of the reasons why nobody has taken this seriously is because nobody thought it was actually possible. Medialogic has just released MS1 of mlview-dxpc. It's a deep rework of the old DXPC which can really be used to run remote X desktops over the Internet, the way Citrix, Microsoft and SCO aim to do using proprietary protocols like RDP and ICA. mlview-dxpc is very preliminary but, in our opinion, it looks very promising. After all this hype about .NET and Application Service Providers, I can't forget X was born exactly for this purpose." -
