NetPCs

[Bob Samson]

We will be experimenting with thin client public workstations this 
year.  We'll be using Wyse Winterm workstations and Citrix' WinFrame 
server software.  Everything we've seen in regards to these products 
indicates that they should make very good, low maintenance, public 
web browsing workstations.

We're just getting started on this project, so I don't have any 
results (good or bad) to report.  However we're quite excited about 
the prospect of providing some clusters of web browsing workstations 
which won't require an army of staff to support.
