Comparison of management software is an excellent idea, and one that I have
not been able to find.

ThinPlanet is still around, but it is not objective.  Every product
mentioned on their site comes only from companies who pay an annual fee to
be a member.  The more the company pays, the better their exposure on the
site.

There used to be one at Windows NT magazine..but of course it is outdated
now,
which is the problem you run into with this type of comparison.

HP just introduced 2 new CE .net clients yesterday for example that no one
has
even seen yet.

It is really going to be hard to compare them and keep it current and
relevant
because none of them offer the same functionality. What I would like to see
is
a comparison of the Management software for each of the vendors that they
use
(wyse, maxspeed, HP, Neoware etc)

It is the management piece that makes the client usable.

Then Part 2 would be a comparison of the different Os's available, drawbacks
and what one is better for over another... ie NTe Xpe, Ce.net Linux, blazer
etc.
