"Normal" DESQView (no "X"), which most people are most familiar with,
didn't have a GUI.

DESQView-X (the X standing for, IIRC, "X window") did indeed have a GUI.
If you knew what you were doing, you could set up an application on a DV-X
box and be able to run it remotely on a linux box.  I never could get the
reverse to work, though.

If you re-read his post, he is talking about DESQView-X.
