I have worked with the S90 which has the embedded XP. It is fine for that right environment. Places like manufacturing or Kiosk are a great place. The drawbacks in the corporate environment are that they have to be managed like any other device so you need another tool which for Wyse is WDM. Also if you need to install small programs on the device there is not alot of room to work. I think it is like 512-1MB local storage. You can have them customize a build for you. Test printing before you make your decision. Installing local print drivers can cause problems. The thing to look at is buying thin clients going to save money in the long run if they cost about the same as PC's? A desktop locked down with group policy offers the same functionality and more flexibility.

Could someone drop me a note off list? Aside from some general concept knowledge I don't know much about them and would like to understand them better.
