Wouldn't a low bandwidth solution allow you to fit more terminals onto the same piece of wire without reconfiguring your network? I don't know how common that would be, but given that current thick clients don't use large amounts of bandwidth I'd guess converting them all to thin clients would place a big load on the wire itself. It'd be nice if less/no reconfiguration was needed. thanks -mike -- Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
