I've been working with LTSP for about a year and a half now. Specifically, LTSP 
on Ubuntu.

We put LTSP-based thin client networks into nonprofits, I think that the open 
source world is a good fit for the nonprofit world and doing this we can free 
them from a lot of the expense of closed source.

But- without making too many value judgments here, I'm starting to wonder if we 
might be better off with another distro.

I don't want to start a Holy War here or anything, but I am interested in 
opinions...

Specifically, which distros support LTSP and are suited to a desktop/office 
environment. I want stability and environment for non-computer oriented people 
to have a desktop that just works- especially things like the multimedia web 
surfing experience and basic to intermediate office tasks- mail merge, etc. For 
the most part I am not as interested in the educational side of things- but 
more in creating an environment that will cater to those migrating from 
Microsoft Windows in an small office setting.
