5 AristotlePagaltzis 1 I am installing X-!ThinPro now. Some notes;
1 NathanWard 2
3 - 13.3mb download. Not very 'thin' ;)
5 AristotlePagaltzis 4 - For SSH tunneling use X-!SecurePro or good ol' putty.
1 NathanWard 5 - [LBX] support for slow connections

7 It's installed. If you understand X11 protocols, configuration is very powerful and intuitive. If you dont understand such things you may need to use the very large help button.

9 I notice there are many modes it can run in:
10 - Single window (one large window that represents the screen that your [X11] apps run in.
11 - Multiple windows (the [X11] windows intermingle with your MicrosoftWindows windows and use the Windows window decorations. Try saying that fast)
12 - Full screen (your pc looks like its a monitor etc plugged into the remote machine)
13 - Multiple windows+remoteWM (Like multiple windows, but the WindowManager functions are provided by the remote machine)
14
15 I also notice that there is GLX/openGL support.

17 I am doing an XDMCP query to my remote machine over a crossover cable using 32bit/33mhz copper gigabit ethernet cards.
18 Typical max thruput is 250mbit.

20 WOW.

22 This is FAST. Its as fast as having it locally, or even faster. I am impressed.
23
24 I played a movie in MPlayer. It works better than locally on the machine itself.

26 This app rivals HummingbirdExceed.

28 I'm using multiple windows with no window manager. There is a task on my taskbar call X-Session, and one for every X11 window that opens. Note - the icons that the client gives to X-thinpro are used as the icons on the taskbar. No other app does this and its really annoying to me.
