This is the one I would use, but I never had a chance:

We have two old machines sitting around the office (both are something

few months with no computer to use at the moment. I'd like to make
one of those a useful terminal, probably just something that could run
X so the user could ssh to another machine and run programs on the
remote machine. Is anyone aware of a good (preferably easy to setup
and manage) distro for what I want that will work on that sort of
hardware?
I'm not sure if this is exactly what people mean when they say "thin
client", but I thought that was the right direction, so I did some
looking. I found, for example, ThinStation
http://thinstation.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/ThIndex
which looks like it might work. I'm wondering if any of you have
tried doing something like this and have suggestions as to a best
bet. As I said, ease is a pretty big priority here, so a fairly
ready-made solution is what I'm seeking.
