Agreed. It's about time that LTSP adapts to the IT changes that drive
this world.
Also it is good to hear that this "other LTSP" with its outdated
technology will soon
be a footnote of the past just as SCO is for Linux.
Questions:
Will there be an easy way to update from 5.0?
I am slightly afraid I will have a hard time to downgrade all my thin
clients to the newer hardware specs.
Will there be a Hardware Downgrader Application that simplifies the
procedure?
Looking forward to the new release with excitement
Keep on your good work!
