Thanks for the response, Joe. I probably should have mentioned that I'm trying to stay away from both cygwin and vncserver. I need speed on an old laptop and a true xserver (at least one without the overhead of cygwin) is probably my best bet. Vncserver works great on every machine I have except the laptop. I've used Hummingbird Exceed (in fact I'm using it right now at work), Reflection X, etc. I tried Winaxe last night. It works great for both Gnome and KDE, but it's not free...as in $90. I tried Mi/X a long time ago and it sucked. It's only $25, and has a known problem with Gnome. I might give the eval copy another try though.
