MS Windows Terminal Server use in New England

[Doug B. Payne]

Hello all,

Here at Boston University we are considering using MS Windows
Terminal Server and Windows Terminals to replace our VT100 
compatible (Wyse) terminals for access to our (soon-to-be)
web-based online catalog and the Internet.

These terminals would be placed in public locations throughout
the main library.

The newer (cheaper) licensing from Microsoft seems to make this
a more reasonable option than installing full pcs.  Plus -- the
decreased maintenance and support time sounds wonderful.

But -- I don't know of any local (New England) library that is
currently using MS Windows Terminal Server for public access 
terminals, and I would like to see it in action before we commit
to the Terminal Server approach.  I am especially interested in
seeing a site that has focused on providing a web browser and
has succeeded in allowing browser plug-ins (does this require
the Citrix MetaFrame software?).

Does anyone know of a New England library that is currently
deploying MS Windows Terminal Server?

Thanks,
