I thought about calling it that, but when I think of a terminal server I think
of something like a POS system that runs one program on a stack of terminals.
This is more of a centralized desktop application thing.

The SSD is about $100 or so, so I figure at that price it's worth having for
any gain that can be had, even if it isn't a blow-your-mind improvement under
