Screenshot of Windows XP and cygwin-x (rootless) running together.

Fair-use is asserted for the X Window System and Cygwin/X articles only for the following reasons:

only a small proportion of the copyrighted work is presented
no loss of income to the copyright owners (largely Microsoft corporation) is likely
the image is necessary for the scholarly discussion of the subject

In addition, in regard to the actual subject of the article and the screenshot (the X Window System window manager and its associated applications):

no loss whatever of income to the copyright owners, as the material is already distributed without charge

This is a screenshot of copyrighted computer software, and the copyright for its contents is most likely held by the author(s) or the company that created the software. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots:

for identification of and critical commentary on the software in question
in the absence of a free alternative,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

…qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

If this is a screenshot of free software (GPL, BSD, etc.) do not use this template! Use the license tag that correspond to the license instead, optionally alongside {{Free screenshot}} to categorize as a free screenshot.
