What is X Windows and why is it important?
X Windows is a 'screen' on which the windows of a GUI (Graphical User Interface) can be displayed. It is a successor to W (windows) named X because the X follows the W. In Microsoft windows the 'screen' must be displayed on the computer that is running the operating system. In X Windows the screen can be located anywhere, since the windows are transported via the Internet (TCP/IP port 6000). The user of the GUI must be running a X Windows 'server'. On a Linux computer this server is often started automatically, showing the users desktop. Programs that want to use a GUI become X windows clients, and communicate with the server via the X Windows protocol (currently X11R6). Almost always one special client program is started automatically: the window manager. The window manager is responsible for 'decorating' each X window with a frame, a close button, maximize button and so forth. There is a wide choice of window managers, some of which duplicate the look-and-feel of Microsoft windows. Tom.
What is the purpose of X client in Linux?
X clients are merely programs that run on X. There is no actual program called X Client.

Things like KDE and GNOME run on top of the X server. But anything you run on X is an X client: Firefox, openbox, kopete, KDE, VLC, mplayer, you name it.
