Dana,

I'm asking this more out of ignorance than anything else.  Would the front-end 
terminal need to specifically comply with PCI if it is merely a data entry 
device and isn't actually storing any information?  Not knowing how Walmart's 
systems are set up, if the XP machine and scanner are hard wired to a back end 
server that stores and forwards all the data, wouldn't that be the machine that 
needs to be PCI compliant?

How can that possibly pass PCI?
