Hi Sudhir Yes, this is known as thin client. Each terminal will need seperate soundcard not on the server. It will not run on ordinary NIC card but, it needs Bootram NIC card. The regular edition of Jaws won't run on it. It requires the version specific for such requirement. You can get in touch with me for more info and I have setup one at home. Harish.
