Here's my take on the advice offered so far, all of which will work: VNC
is a resource hog - it works by replicating the desktop rather than
drawing items like X; Hummingbird is very expensive; cygwin is not really
a good choice since it's basically running Linux in Windows and you don't
need that.

My advice - go to Kenton Lee's X/Motif page. There you will find a list of
X servers that will run from MS. These will range from fast to slow; free
to cheap to expensive. I've found that Xmanager has a very good product
with a free evaluation copy which never seems to time out. Try that and
some of the others too.
