Ubuntu has integrated LTSP into it's distribution.. LTSP is Linux Terminal Server Project, and is a marvelous setup worth investigating since it is so incredibly cost efective. Diskless workstations, recycled from older pc's boot w/ applications that are all driven server side. This feature is an incredible resource for both budget strapped implementations... and for administrators hard pressed to maintain multiple workstations.... The client side configuration is minimal; workstations do not even need hard drives to get up and running; ... so virtually all maintenance including virus protection is done server side. From a practical standpoint, LTSP has the potential to revolutionize computing in our schools...where it is being looked at in a serious manner; but i've believed from my first look at Vista 5 months ago, that LTSP could do even more for the medical community and for this application in particular. It's worth investigating and Shuttleworth was visionary when he incorporated it into the last Ubuntu release. Alan
