I have an HP thin client here running ce.net. It's got to be the most
unfriendly thin client I have ever seen. I think you really need a
well setup Rapport installation (or whatever HP calls their version)
to make these really work well. It is a t5500.
I slimmed mine down by installing ICA 8 from the Citrix website. I
then removed all the surrounding HP garbage like Messenger and IE from
the desktop and start menu and left just the ICA shortcuts I wanted
the user to have on the desktop. The start menu is pretty much empty
and the desktop is pretty clean as a result too. I put the main ica
connection I wanted them to use in the startup folder so it starts
once it boots up.
So far so good but I won't be recommending them as a solution for us.
