Eckerd College, Saint Petersburg, Florida.We have a small deployment (30 stations) in the Library, Dorm labs, pubs and cafes around campus. We use JDS as the gui for card and kiosk users, and we use Crossover Office Server from a Linux server for office apps. There's vague discussion going on about a switch to full-screen RDP Windows someday.
We've worked through problems with thumb drives and the location of "windows" files; now that our support staff in IT and the library are more familiar with the Sun Rays things seem to be going well.
We provide smart carsd free of charge, but the uptake on those has not been large - students don't grasp why they would want them. Probably a PR failure on our part.

A while back, Craig posted to the ThinkThin blog a video showing Georgia Tech's Sun Ray deployment (http://blogs.sun.com/ThinkThin/date/20070227). Are there any Georgia Tech folks on this list? Is there any more information available about their setup? I'm afraid that I couldn't quite get the whole story from the video.While we're at it, any other .edu types on this list? I expect that many of us in universities face similar challenges and have to meet many of the same demands. I'm interested in learning more about how others are making this stuff work in their university environments.cheers, -tom
