There was, many years ago, a port of X Window from Unix to DOS, known as X-Appeal.
One could download a crippled version or pay $199 for the full, working (?) version. I never tried it. That was in the days before broadband internet was so widely available, and one could buy a CD Set for Linux (such as Slackware) and FreeBSD, NetBSD or OpenBSD, with working X Window, for less money. So naturally, X-Appeal lacked sex appeal. I think it was on SimtelNet. Now not a word in many years, so I assume it's dead. I found information by Google search on X-Appeal DOS software I don't think one could run Linux or Unix software on X-Appeal, maybe just a few small applications.
