Damien,

the answer to your question is YES.

Etherboot and PXE are both excellent methods of booting thin clients.

If your thin clients have PXE, use it.  if not, then buy a network card 
with either PXE or Etherboot on it and use it.  If you can't do that, 
then create an etherboot image and write it to a floppy, and boot from that.

My point is, use whatever you can get.
