The Neoware Capio 616 terminals don't have enough power to do anything significant by themselves. They just give you a desktop on the LTSP server and everything runs there. You can use "fatter" clients that will allow you to run local applications and not use the server's resources to do so. That requires more hefty hardware on the terminal end than a mere thin client. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
