RE: [U2] OT - Thin Clients

Marc,

Have you considered the WYSE thin clients ?  I had evaluated some about
a year ago.  I thought the software on the WYSE did have VP emulation
built in.  Of the thin clients I looked at, I also liked the linux
versions.  The one windows based thin client that I looked at from
Neoware was running windows and crashed not more than 10 minutes out of
the box.

 Has anyone had any experience with running HP Thin Clients 
 instead of the ADDS/Boundless 4000 terminals?  In particular, 
 I'm looking at either the HP T5520 and the HP T5525.
 
 I like the T5525 because of it running Linux (over the T5520 
 running Windows CE), and that the T5525 has 256MB Flash 
 Memory (over the T5520 which has 64MB).  They both have 128MB 
 RAM.  But the T5520 is a little cheaper (which really isn't 
 going to be the dealbreaker), but it does include Terminal 
 Emulation software and more importantly it has the ADDS A2 
 emulation that we need.  If we do get the T5525, does anyone 
 know of any emulation software that has the ADDS A2 (or 
 viewpoint) that runs on a thin client machine?
 
 Thanks for any advice, input or help.
 
 Marc

Consider Microsoft Terminal Services and Dynamic Connect on a Win Terminal
or Win9x old PC.
Dynamic Connect is Windows only.

Consider GUI functionality for down the road.

We've been using the Neoware linux thin clients for years.  They come
with a built-in emulator (TeemTalk) that does ADDS A2 emulation, which
we also make extensive use of.  If you're going to have to install an
emulator on a thin client, the two we've had experience with are
TeemTalk and Pericom.  You should check with HP first to check
compatibility since thin client OSes tend to be very customized.
