If you are looking at remote PC displays, I would suggest you consider NCD
Xterminals.
Foxboro resells them, or you can buy them outright.
They have no hard drive, (boot of the network), so they are pretty rugged.
No fonts to download/compile.
Also, if an operator powers them down, nothing is hurt. No disk check
required.
