StarNet

StarNet Communications Corporation was founded in 1989 and incorporated in 1990 by engineers working part-time out of their home. The  corporate mission was to create and market powerful, yet affordable PC-X server products for corporate, education and government markets.

The first X Server product, MicroX, was launched in 1991. It enabled users of 286 and 386-based Intel systems to access the X Window System from their personal computers. Quite possibly, StarNet was the first company to base its entire business model on the Internet, because in 1991, the Internet was mostly used by universities and government agencies. As a result, and aided by its low cost, simplicity and focus on the X server functionality, X-Win32 quickly became popular in these sectors.

StarNet has grown its market share by bringing a steady stream of innovations to the market, starting in 2000 with integrating SSH and most recently with FastX which allows users to access their remote Linux and Unix desktop through standard PC browsers. FastX also offers the ability to Suspend/Resume sessions.

X-WIN32

The Best PC X Server for X Windows Display on Your LAN

After nearly 25 years of development, X-Win32 is the most versatile PC X Server for displaying remote Unix and Linux desktops and individual X applications. X-Win32 is widely used in demanding engineering design sectors such as defense/aerospace, molecular biology, and IC design with applications like Cadence Virtuoso.

Best Security

X-Win32 comes with an integrated SSH that encrypts all data between the client and the server, making remote x terminal connections from home and elsewhere very secure.

Fastest 3D/Rendering

The hardware acceleration on the local PC and the implementation of 65 OpenGL extensions allow X-Win32 to offer the fastest OpenGL support in the industry. 3D applications like Catia and Eclipse work like they were running locally.

Text/Graphics
Copy & Paste

X-Win32 is the only PC X Server that offers integrated copying of both text and graphics from X applications into Windows.

Multiple X Desktop

With X-Win32, open remote Unix and Linux desktops from several different hosts at the same time. You can Alt-Tab between Unix, Linux and Windows desktops, even copy data from one host to another.

Dynamic Window Scaling

X-Win32 is the first PC X server having activated the RandRextension, you can now scale the remote desktop simply by grabbing the corner of the window and dragging it to the desired size. You can also scale the window to be larger than your actual monitor.
