I would favor using some of the NetVistas for the lab workstations. Unless we need to boot Windows in the lab for some reason the 8364s are perfect LTSP workstations.

I would imagine the old computers from the original lab would be in the new lab, thus the new lab would have dual capabilities.


On a side thought, what Window Manager does VL use? I'm thinking if were running classes for volunteers / students that we might want to setup the ltsp server as close as possible to the VL workstations. I don't foresee this as a problem under Debian but worth looking into.

Quite frankly, I'm really tired of the 'bounders' they keep creating with Gnome in the 'testing' distro. I'm just insane enough right now to dump Gnome in favor or rolling our own setup on Debian.

On another topic, last week I posted a message about Computers for All
http://www.computersforall.org/ . I noticed that their focus is on Windows solutions I wonder if they would wish to partner with us for people needing/wanting windows machines. Just a thought.

Oh man, I forgot to ask about them. I'll do that now.
