Now that you mention it, I think I remember someone saying those 1200's =
are BSD based. I forget exactly who shared that nugget of info. It was =
a few months back.
My EON units have better ICA performance than my Winterms but they are =
also three years newer. I think better hardware =3D better performance =
for my users here. Stability/Reliability is another matter and Wyse =
loses in that area for me too.
I have not run any units at 128 bit encryption. I know Neoware (and =
most other terminal makers) will gladly send you a demo unit to kick the =
tires on for a month or so. Take a few of them up on it and see if any =
do a better job meeting your needs. If you do buy, Neoware has the =
Preferred 200 terminal for $300 until the end of June.

Greg,
If it helps, the 1200LEs we're using are not CE based, they are the Wyse =
terminal OS jobbies. Very fast ICA performance.
Will other terminal manufacturers have similar ICA client performance, =
even when using 128-bit encryption?
thanks,
adam
