[ubuntu-uk] Diskless Workstations
Hi-de-hi Campers With all the postings relating to home servers and small screens got me thinking. Is there such a thing as a diskless workstation that looks for all intents and purposes like a laptop, ie combined screen, keyboard and mouse pad, but without HDD battery and other associated mobile type stuff? I've only ever found / seen those that look like a standard desktop installation, ie all seperate, but not combined. Yes I realise I can get a second hand lappie and do this but I've never seen one from new - or maybe just haven't got the Google search criteria right Cheers E -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/

If you are on about a dumb terminal type thing Igel and Wyse make boxs for this sort of purpose Cheers Robin -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
