I did a quick and dirty test setup yesterday and was quite impressed.
One of the tests was running a VMWare with 128MB and a tiny empty
disk. The VM booted off the LTSP binaries merrily and was up and
running within seconds. The server was a VM on my file server with
768MB RAM and the client was a VM on my linux laptop so everything did
go through the network cable in the end. I've also tried an ancient
700MHz Pentium 3 laptop with 256MB RAM and that was way faster than
the local Linux installation on the box so I think this setup is going
to stay and will be in use instead of the local OS.
