just FWIW, our budget when setting up the first lab: SEK 0:- (yes, that's zero). I'm pretty much out of the loop on that lab by now, but I know money isn't exactly raining into it either (AFAIK the exact same server and clients running now as four years ago), so keeping at least the option of thinnest possible clients is imperative for at least that lab, and probably many, many others. One of the reasons for choosing LTSP is staying out of the upgrading spiral as much as possible (how long before those Atoms are considered obsolete?). Let's keep it that way, please.
