I'd skip any ideas of "local swap"; remember that his machines will probably be
pretty new, and the 16M needed to run a local machine's apps would get lost inside the
typical 168-pin memory- they're probably 64M each. What, are they cracking RC5 or
something? Would you WANT them running something so large, on the individual
workstations? This is a school; if they use any swap, they're probably doing
something you don't want'em to.
Put at least 1G of ram on the server. 256 was skimpy on a 12-user system- it won't
work with 'explorers' on a 28-node system...
