Run Linux apps on Windows.. kinda
Got a Linux box in the house and want just a few applications from over there(Linux) to run over here (Windows)? This may just be the trick. The X windows system -- the base which allows graphical applications to run in Linux -- has always had the ability for an application to run on one machine while displaying on another. That's a basic concept of X's design, and with Xming running on your Windows machine, now you can export those X applications to your XP/2003/Vista desktop.
The downside is you'll need a running Linux box (either separate or as a virtual machine) to host the application you want to export. However, if you're already spending time at more than one machine, this could be a serious productivity tool for your arsenal.

this trick is rather trivial.
