Warren-
As I am sure you are aware, most KM266 based boards are configured to be
network-bootable. Have you had any real life success story in using a
KM266 system (e.g., ShuttleX SK41G or MSI 6252) as a thin client?
The reason I mentioned this is that, b/c of the salty air and lack of
air-conditioning in many homes and buildings, our hardware deteriorates
faster than typically in the mainland. It is a noble idea to make the
best use of outdated computers, but some thoughts probably should be
given to utilizing new but cheap thin clients.
