Your wife's experience not withstanding, I really don't like the
x-client that comes with cygwin. For me, it crashes a lot. Its not
something I use all that regularly, but its easier for me to fire up VNC
than to fight with cygwin X11. (Which is strange, because for
everything else, I really like cygwin.)
Just my anecdotal experience. If I had to use it a lot, I'd probably
pay for a client.
