We probally need to keep the number of systems down a little. I was thinking something like: 2 Thin Clients 1 Thin CLient Server 1 OBS 1 Other Business Server 2 Business Desktops 1 Game/Home System And that is alot of systems (monitors take tons of space). Deven, how much space did they say we could have? I can bring a laptop (500mhz, 192MB, 6GB hdd) and maybe one or two of my upgraded PPro (4U celeron 766, 256MB). The laptop would be good to set up as a business workstation. In my opinion we should be more professional and focus on the business user and not the *nix geek hobbist. Just an idea. Deven, what did you have in mind? Dusty --------------------------------------------------- > > I have thin client setups ready, with X Terminals that boot over NFS then > query XDMCP.
