Hey guys,
I got a few more interesting links :D :
----
Zencafe is a GNU/Linux internet cafe desktop distribution based on
Zenwalk. Zenwalk is based on Slackware, and both Zenwalk and Zencafe
are mostly backwards compatible with Slackware.
(version 2.0 was released in April 2009)
Feature:
* latest stable software)
* fast (optimized for performance capabilities)
* User Friendly (designed for various internet cafe user technical
background)
* Rational (standard internet cafe mainstream application only)
* Evolutionary (netpkg installation, deepfreeze like tool, and
internet management software included)

download: http://linux.blogs.ie/downloads/ (around 700MB ISO)
(the Deepfreeze-like autorecovery seems real interesting)
-------------
By the way, the Internet Cafe Management software that runs on ZenCafe
is 'Cafe con Leche' .
It is also available for Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid.
The project seems not actively maintained (last updates were in 2006).
Still, it seems quite complete.
Please checkout the following link:

The project's homepage is at http://ccl.sourceforge.net/?page=main
------------------------
I came across another project called gBilling, with CLEAN and
EXCELLENT looks!
The version seems to be just v0.1 beta2.
The bigger problem is that he seems to be an anti-English, only-
Indonesian type....seems there is no English translation. :-(
Anyway, couldnt avoid mentioning its good looks...
Chekkout d following screenshots:

----------------------
And here is a b.i.g. list of cyber cafe programs maintained by Michael
Howard (along with the his observations on each):

--------------------
As of now, I seem to be interested in the following solutions for our
particular problem:
<> OutKafe -- well maintained
<> ZenCafe - i like the concept of a dedicated cafe distro (though i
wud prefer an ubuntu base)
- seems it mite b updated along for quite some time
- 'deepfreeze'-like autorecovery is also interesting
<> Cafe-con-Leche on Ubuntu
---- Please chekkout these and post your feedback
Thanks,
Anto Jose
Happy Computing!!!
