All of my 16 terminals are 486s DX4/100 with 16 Mb of main RAM, a PCI video card with at least 1Mb of video RAM and a 10Mb NIC. They all boot correctly and their response time under X-Window in an 800x600 resolution is very acceptable. Of course, it all depends on how you or your users define the word _acceptable_ ;-) Mine simply _have_ to like it, because I am the teacher and the're the students ;-) Moreover, they mainly create and consult documents and data with office suits, browsers, editors, databases and scripting/programming languages. Therefore, most of the time the server (a mere Pentium III at 550MHz!) and I (!) are waiting for them instead of the other way round.
