with 6 AMD
Sempron/Celeron machines with 512KB RAM. Does someone
have a good reference that I can use ?
How about just using ltsp over thin clients? That might drastically
lower the cost of hardware ( thereby, perhaps, giving you more money to
spend on related infrastructure )
I just looked into edubuntu servers. It is infact a LTSP deployment
comes with edubuntu .
here is a useful resource abt edubuntu+ltsp+thin clients

"..........Because the LTSP scripts can be a hassle for a novice, the
folks who made Edubuntu (Ubuntu plus a few packages and configurations
for schools) put in automatic installation of the simplest, and most
common setup, the server running a private LAN with your clients. This
works well for a classroom, a computer lab, an office or a small
school..........."
As you said, thin clients would be ideal for this setup.
