[no subject]

when i looked at the thinknic offerings (admittedly, a while ago) they seemed a bit... dated.  with no real upgrade path (fixed processors?).  i understand that the server is doing most/all the work, but it would be nice to have options.

basically i want to network boot and setup some dumb terminals.  music, webpages, email, and openoffice.org will all be piped to each box (100 mip network).  my server is a dual PIII 800 with 1/2 gig memory (currently) and hdd's to be determined.  this will only be for a max of 10 people with an average 3 at any given time.

i am looking into LTSP and other distro's, but would appreciate any feedback i can get.

anyone using similar?
