I was interested in this too; Pi B out of the box does not, but according to 
this thread it can be done with some work:

I like the idea of the cubbiebaord2 though as mentioned by Miguel; thanks. If 
anyone has practical experience of implementing OTC via these devices there 
appears to be some interest in the OTC community

Regards,

Frank

Yes I was thinking model B.  is the chip in the Pi not PXE compatible?
Even booting from SD would be nice as an inexpensive OTC device.  Low power 
consumption as well.  Rig it up to a case that you can attach to VESA mount on 
the back of a monitor and it makes for a real compact work environment.

Our current use of OTC is just as a terminal for users to log into any otc 
client and rdp to a certain pre-defined machine.  Perhaps I am missing 
something here but I thought it would be a great idea.

Dear Robert,

   Would you mind explaining what you have in mind please? I am guessing that 
you mean using the Pi model B as client, booting from the SD card rather than 
PXE, but I can't see an obvious use case for the Pi with OTC.

All the best,

Mark
