[ale] Cygwin Or...?

Suppose I want to deploy a Linux GUI app (let's say MrProject, an X11/Gnome
app) and my user base is already set up on Win2K. What are my rollout options
given that I must retain the Win2K clients?
I've been looking at Cygwin and it seems that it might be a piece of the
puzzle; at the moment, though, I am willing to entertain either running the app
centrally or independently on each client machine. I want to minimize the
impact at the desktop level (i.e., dropping a desktop icon on everyone's screen
is preferable to performing an app install at every client machine).
Assume furthermore that I am not interested in buying X server software for
each client and that each user should be able to run an independent instance of
the app (as opposed to several people contending for the same instance).
