<p class="MsoNormal">The story behind the questions. A client is looking at
moving *<b>everything</b>* from a local server room to a hosted environment and
considering going to thin clients, with the idea being that pretty much all
on-site support is eliminated. The hosted environment would be Terminal
Services on Windows Server 2008. I’d welcome comments on the
overall concept, but I’m really looking for answers regarding good Thin
Client solutions.<o:p></o:p></p>
