How do you plan on using them? We use them in our manufacturing environment running the Wyse OS to run an HP/UX app (IP and Digiport printing is fine), a couple ASP.Net apps on IIS (IP printing is fine) and several Win 2K3 TS apps (forget about printing). I've never installed anything locally. If one breaks (which is rare -- and warranty repairs are quick), I just replace it and move on.
We use Rapport (the Wyse software) for remote administration. ~Becky > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: [email protected] > Date: Mon, 7 Jul 2008 16:26:23 -0400 > Subject: RE: WYSE Terminal thin clients > > I have worked with the S90 which has the embedded XP.
