[luau] Proposed LTSP Server Config

[Nakashima]

Just my opinion...
 From the public education perspective.

Currently, schools spend the lion's share of their budget on new 
equipment from Dell, HP, Apple, etc., and on new and upgraded software 
licenses. My limited experience with LTSP has taught me:
1. Schools can spend less on new hardware and software (less money 
going out of the state);
2. Schools can spend more on local Linux support (more money 
circulating through our local economy);
3. Schools can use recycled hardware (less landfill material).
I'm not sure if this is making any sense. Your feedback will be 
appreciated.
Although my experiences are limited to what's going on in public 
education, wouldn't this also be true for private and higher education, 
government, business, and other orgs?
