I found the topic of thin clients to be the most interesting. I have always seen them in stores, and have often wondered about them. I think it is a great idea for certain businesses. Some employees do not need the full capabilities of a desktop. One of the businees that I have been into quite a bit uses a thin client. The business is a roofing supply company, their customer service employees only use their computers for looking up prices, checking stock, and placing orders. All the functions that they perform are perfect for the thin client solution. On this HP website they talk about when to consider a thin client for your business.
There are also many benefits to having a thin client. You can lower your costs for computers, the purchase of a thin client is cheaper than the cost of a desktop. You can manage your network easier than with the desktops. The security is enhanced because there is no information stored on the thin clients. The benefits go on for the use of thin clients.
I found this website to be interesting, it talks about using a thin client in your home and managing your entertainment system.
