Comment Sunray, Linux, Windows or ??? (Score 2, Interesting) 372
The article doesn't say what kind of OS these thin clients support.
Presumably it isn't Solaris, since they would have mentioned Sunray terminals otherwise. Poor Sun, they've been trying for years -- halfheartedly -- to push their sunray terminals without much success.
Personally, I'd be interested in Apple producing a thin client solution. But not just for the office. Consider how many of us have 3-4 computers at home these days for our families? I'd like to see a small home setup where a G5 tower (or smaller!) would support up to four thin terminals around the house. Much easier to administrate and backup.
