WYSE TERMINALS.   The Windows XPe or Windows CE models might be what you
are looking for.  You could reset them easily.

Subject: [THIN] OT - product options for defaulting workstation OS
configs?

 

I'm looking for software / hardware product options for having a windows
OS that returns itself to your specified config on reboot or at a
specific time of day. 

 

The particular scenario we're looking to cover would be an otherwise
very locked down system setup, but the application needed to run
requires the user to be a local administrator. In the off chance that a
user on one of these systems were to get some other software installed,
or they were able to screw around with the setup; we'd like that
particular windows OS to boot back into the config which we set it up to
work under (thereby removing any and all user performed installations
and changes to it). 

 

I'm a long time thin list lurker ;), and I recall a few discussions in
the past about some products that may fit our needs, but I'm just not
stumbling across any in my searches right now. 

 

The OS's we'd like to support would be windows XP and the new vista
lines if possible. 

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions. 

 

Lan
