You could also look at the Linux Terminal Server Project found at http://www.ltsp.org I have had 4 of these running ranging from pentium 120 with 32mb ram and up. 16mb of ram will work ok but 32 is better. My first was a dx2-66 with 8mb of ram, it worked but was a bit slow. The server will need plenty of ram, I had 512mb in the server and was using it as a client as well and it worked fine. Gary.
