I'll consider it, although it still sounds complicated.

What do I gain from X that I don't already have with remote terminal
sessions like those created with SecureCRT? I know it looks pretty, but
what server-related things can I do with X that I cannot do with
ordinary terminals?  I'm not aware of anything right now; it seems that
everything can be done from a command line (thank goodness--working with
Windows is a nightmare precisely _because_ so many things cannot be done
from a command line).
