From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Totally fair, but you don't have to open a port and could do ssh port forwarding if you are already going the ssh X forwarding route. I would try to measure the performance difference between X forwarding and a something like tigervnc. Depending on the specs of your server/clients it might not be very noticeable.
