Well, I'm about to rollout a NEW company with LTSP; there are a lot of places that
are still on Wyse 60 trerminals on SCO boxes. My bit will be to offer "workplaces" at
$50/month, and all tech support is free, so long as I don't have to drive in. But the
trick is, unlike Windows drek, I can almost take care of the thing completely from
home. I could probably support 20 or more of these clusters this way.
A lot of places are interested in this kinda solution; not hiring an on-site
computer person saves a lot of cash. I could say more about the project, but I have
my eye on a nationwide rollout...and it's not completely finalized just yet. :)
As things progress, I'll be reporting on my findings...
