I am intrigued by this but I do have some reservations.  How much horsepower 
does your PC have? What is your performance like versus with explorer and 
running X within that? Do you use Konqueror for web browsing, or are you 
switching to a Windows application?  I really like being able to use 
Konqueror now that SSL works, but unfortunately it seems to have a fairly 
sizeable memory leak.  That or the X server does and Konqueror just makes it 
balloon.
