I am looking at deploying some thin clients. But the prices for them are pretty high for what you get IMHO. Don't want CE. Looked at some Linux Thin clients but wasn't to impressed (Neoware Eon 4000, MaxSpeed 3300, Wyse 5440XL). The only good thing going about thin clients is that there is no hard disk in them. I see the Compaq D600 Series starts at $630.00 list price. But I am forced to buy it with XP (ugh!) that I will never use. I was thinking if I could buy something with a ultra-slim form factor (without Microsoft hopefully) I'ld have maximum flexibility and try putting FreeBSD on it and use it a a thin client. Is anyone else using ultra-slim PC's for this??? Don't want no big honking PC chassis stuff!
