X /X/ n. 1. Used in various speech and writing contexts (also in
lowercase) in roughly its algebraic sense of `unknown within a set
defined by context' (compare {N}). Thus, the abbreviation 680x0 stands
for 68000, 68010, 68020, 68030, or 68040, and 80x86 stands for 80186,
80286, 80386, 80486, 80586 or 80686 (note that a Unix hacker might write
these as 680[0-6]0 and 80[1-6]86 or 680?0 and 80?86 respectively; see
{glob}). 2. [after the name of an earlier window system called `W'] An
over-sized, over-featured, over-engineered and incredibly
over-complicated window system developed at MIT and widely used on Unix
systems.
