The thin clients / WBTs / Winterms I implemented in early '98, are still
there and in daily use. They haven't been replaced or added to.

Which was part of the rationale behind using them - ie not needing to
get in the cycle of having to upgrade client hardware every X year(s).

Quite disappointing, though, is the lack of vendor support at firmware
level since '99, so these thin clients can't fully leverage later client
/ protocol developments.
