I remember my first internship. That was in 2001 and we were already talking about how great thin clients were.<p>Don't forget that in most cases they are <i>still</i> more expensive than regular PC (eeebox at 250 bucks comes to mind). Because you need to have big terminal servers. And Wyse terminals don't come cheap.
