Hi Thomas, I am running X11 mostly because I came from Linux. I've been using Evolution on Linux for a few years for my email. When I got my Mac, I just copied over my Evolution directory, installed Evolution through Fink and it works just as it did on Linux. Saddly that is about the only software that I use under X11 at this point. I've converted pretty much everything else over to native Mac applications.
