Has a cloud service like Amazon web services, or similar, been considered?
Basically everything Peter just said applies, but you'd have the benefit of
scaling up and down as needed and not have to pay for time when school is
not in session, nor for
difference.
Softimage wasn't installed on the SAN and we didn't have thin clients, so I
can't provide much feedback in that area.

Dear Peter
Thank you for the incredibly comprehensive response.
The crazy kindergarten accountancy at the university means that the lab
computers need to be paid for by the schools
ive students ask about why you have older hardware,
just explain the points above about seeing performance and so forth. The
more you put it into a practical light, the better it'll sell the serious
student that your program is credible.

if you mean using a thin client on the desk, to connect to a remote workstation
(in the server room) – then yes – have used this at a former studio.
overall it worked quite well.
on the thin client you would launch an app, on which you
made to customize and beef up and ultimately to put decent specs in. I’d
look at barebones rather.

Hi Folks
Has anyone had any experience using 3d apps like Softimage, Maya
Hi Folks
Has anyone had any experience using 3d apps like Softimage, Maya, Unity (for
our games side) via a thin client. Most of the marketing stuff pretty much
makes it look like Christmas in July, but is very thin on actual metrics. ie
Latency, numbers of concurrent apps etc.
