I'm not familiar with the voices that you're using. But I'd read the
lisence carefully, I bet that it is a per seat / user lisence, not a
per computer lisence.

Hi,
No, because it is on one Mac, not fifty.

Good evening,
Wouldn't you still need 50 lisences if the voice was being used by
50 users?

Hi,
The IBM's use Ubuntu via the LTSP project. It is cheaper than
putting 50+ Mac Mini's because the maintance would be high.
Also, we are planning to buy one lisence of Infovox's Spanish
Voice for use by all the students.
Thanks,

I haven't seen a Citrix-like solution for the Mac but I've been
out of the enterprise space for some time. Are you sure it will
be a lower cost than just putting 50 Mac Minis without screens in
place? How do the thin clients work? You might be dependent on
IBM for a solution since it's their clients that need to share to
the Mac server.

Hi,
I am looking at setting up a computer lab for Visually Impaired
students. It is Voiceover/Linux Driven, and any assistance is
greatly appreciated. A list of hardware i below:
50+ IBM Thin Clients
1 network server (possibly virtual)
1 Mac Pro with eight cores and 16 GB RAM.
Now my question is that I need to setup virtual sessesions from
each TC to the Mac to use Voiceover. The problem is that the
only software that will do that is FreeNX which isn't available
for the Mac yet. Is there any solutions. FreeNX will include
support for Mac in version 4.0, but in the meantime I would
appreciate any free solutions.
Thanks,
Alex,
