Ive only used PCs and Macs; just what is an X-terminal anyway?

0

An X-terminal is a display device which communicates with a UNIX host computer using the X11 window system. Applications, called X clients, are run on the host computer and are displayed in windows on the X-terminal by the X server that runs in the X-terminal. So, unlike a PC, Mac, or UNIX workstation, which are computers unto themselves, an X-terminal relies on the host machine. MFCF provides X-terminals made by Network Computing Devices (NCD), Hewlett-Packard, and Neoware.
