Should be. Depends on a few things, like what suite you're using for
word processing (openoffice is a memory hog, whereas kwrite and abiword
have a much smaller imprint). Basically, if you're using openoffice,
gaim, firefox al at once and system will feel it, but it'll get
through. your speed might not be that of a single power desktop, but I
think it should be OK. If it's a problem then ram will likely be your
issue. Ram, I find, is the source of almost every computing problem
ever. or at least all the ones I've had.

I am new to the world of diskless w/s and have a query about the
required hardware in a cyber cafe.
Senario: 40 PC's and Server
Server has the following: AMD64FX Processor, 2 x 200GB SerialATA HD,
512MB PC400 DDRAM. Is this system strong enough to handle requests
from the network for word processing, chat, yahoo, webcams, ect on a
continuous basis.
What type of LAN should I use, 100mbps or a 1Gbit LAN?
Any advice for the above areas would be greatly appreciated.
