Operating Systems AIX X-Client recommendation Post 302519606 by bakunin on Wednesday 4th of May 2011 11:18:26 AM

Hm, there is Cygwin, which has an X-Server. How good or bad it is i don't know, because i have installed Fedora on my workplace and moved the original Windoze system to a virtual machine.

IMHO Unix administrators work best having a UNIX system at their desk, not some crippling terminal emulator. If you can make a recommendation get management to buy you some Linux-Workstation as a workplace. It will not be AIX, but close enough to make your working environment comfortable and still not any more expensive than a Windoze desktop.

You could have a separate Windows-Workstation for the unescapable Outlook/Exchange or install some Virtual Machines-Solution and run Windows from there. I recommend KVM instead of the Virtual Box i use, because it is faster and overall better, but in most cases anything will do: KVM, Virtual Box, VMWare - probably even Wine.

I hope this helps.
