Hi Vikram: You use an interesting term 'network topology' to describe thin client systems. Here are few queries that I have: 1. Is there any restriction on the kind of connectors on the server system ? What would be a typical server's configuration ? 2. How much is the performance difference between thin client and multi-head system ? 3. Is it mandatory to have a PXE support in NIC resident in thin client ? Thanks in advance. thanks Saifi.
