The "official" Xwindows port to Aqua / OSeX 10.2 is in "final public beta" and 
has been available from the Apple site for about a month. I downloaded and 
installed the X+X package on one of the video editing stations at work (a 
purely point and click process), but have not had a lot of time to explore it 
since then. (-: Curse those paying client jobs!! I want to PLAY!! :-)

I have also downloaded the Gimp package for OSeX+X and performed another point 
and click install, but getting the Gimp RUNNING quickly went beyond the point 
and click operating mode. Again and unfortunately, I've not had a lot of time 
for researching the problem, so I would be very interested in OSeX+X 
suggestions or pointers from others as well.
