Wow! That's what I was expecting to be posted in this list. An actual large deployment of LTSP setup. Is this already a gigabit ethernet connection from/to the terminal server or just 100Mbps? > We use icewm and ROX-filer as a window manager/file manager combo.

But with my original hardware specs, is it conservative to say that it can already support 50 workstations using either KDE or Gnome desktop environment and the popular office applications? Thanks.
