I'd
like to figure out what remote service would put the least demands on
the T23. It's fully populated to 1GB memory (it's maximum), so
memory
is less likely a factor than the processor.
You may also want to try Xspice.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Spice#Xspice
It would be mainly for reading documentation (web pages and PDFs),
email, etc, and perhaps watching training videos through YouTube &
such
(yeah, videos may be the downfall of the whole idea).
SPICE can handle audio and video but I am unsure about the development
status of Xspice audio support.
I had thought of using XDMCP, but it seems to have been removed from
newer display managers like MDM. I liked XDMCP since it would be the
most seamless of any option (since your entire desktop is running
remote
anyway), all the others seemed to require a lot of services loaded
locally first, then your remote session would be in a window anyway.
But if there's any suggestions for better options, I'd like to hear
them.
I'm looking forward to Xspice integration with systemd. Until then, it
can be run from a command line (like Xvnc).
And no, there is no budget to get newer hardware in the foreseeable
future; what I have is what I'm going to have to use. (any
better/newer
machines I have are broken and/or unrepairable).
