Thin Client Computing in 5 Minutes Video

Good video, I wonder how long it will take for Thin Client computing to be used in people's home rather then just mainly at schools, or work places since it looks somewhat complicated for the average user to set up if they have little knowledge with PCs or networking.

My school have this, too.

It might help a huge family save a lot of money where everyone must have a PC for doing homework, going online, etc since Thin client computers cost about 100-200 dollars while desktops cost 300-1000 dollars. Plus, you do not have to maintain Thin client computers since they are fanless. The only computer you need to maintain is the more powerful computer which runs all the programs.
