Hi Everybody - 

Im a CSUF student doing some research and would like to get end user answers, 
opinions, and suggestions about a few questions and concerns I am trying to 
prove exist with regard to thin client computing. 

Your participation will be greatly appreciated. 

Questions

1.  How can I determine the size of the market for enterprise users requiring 
remote access to enterprise applications?
2.  Is mobility important to an enterprise? If so, why? If not, how come?
3.  Does having thin clients on centralized networks improve productivity 
dramatically? How does someone measure that?
4.  Does the installation of thin clients instead of fat PCs add a competitive 
advantage to a business' goals? Is maintenance cost the only measurement?
5.  What is the decision making process a company goes through in deciding to 
outfit their organization with thin clients?
6.  What are the most important features and benefits you DO NOT see offered 
today?
7.  If you had to convince someone about the thin client solution in :30 
seconds - how would you convince them of its advantages?
8.  Do you need to be a network engineer to install and manage these systems?
9.  Where do you first look to learn about new computing solutions?
10. Does a brand really matter when all the specifications and functionality 
offered are the same accross the board?

Thank you.
