We use HP t5300 thin clients.  533mhz processor, 64mb of ram.  They work 
perfectly fine for our application.  They were one of the least 
expensive options at the time that we bought that, which is mostly the 
reason why we did. :)  One of my clients has 18.  Another has... oh yeah 
he also has 18...  and the other has 30.  We havnt had a single one 
break on us in almost 3 years of our setup with these things, and they 
are constantly moving around, being packed up, re-setup at each 
different even that we do.  (They are used for photo view stations at 
youth sporting events).  Heck, we havnt even broken a single mouse or 
keyboard yet in all this time, which we are amazed at. :)

Good luck...
