No he did not, but I wanted to short circuit any answers resembling
"because VNC is easier to get working on Windows than X" type answers.
I really do want to know why VNC is better than X - specifically in
the environment of sitting on a machine that's already running an X
server and firing off X client programs on a SPARC box. What does VNC
get me that X doesn't? i.e. - why would I want to load something
that's not included out of the box. What's the payoff?

?Honestly, with most any SPARC system, VNC is Your Friend.
Why is that better than X?
