Sorry Phil, I should of given a bit more background. At present we run one suite of 17 RM windows machines with a windows 2003 server and each classroom has a single access point with an XP laptop. So at present nothing of the linux proposal exists. The intention is to retain the suite as is, and add the linux master server,slave servers and clients to the classrooms. I would ideally like the clients to be recycled machines as this would not only be economical for us but a would serve as a good example of sustainability to the children.
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/ECgo-Computers in Cambridge is a good source for used kit, also in Peterborough we have More Solutions <http://www.more-shop.co.uk/computer-systems-desktop-pcs-c-21_46_128.html>
I would think a single web cache on the internet connection would be the most productive, rather than one per class.
