Hi,

Is anyone using thin clients or equivalent on their DRBL system?

We've used Zotac in the past but they are a bit pricy and are looking for alternatives that could include small form factor computers. Thanks.

Of course this depends on the software you want. However, basically the client should be able to run a full GNU/Linux system. For DRBL, the only difference from a "diskfull" machine is all the files are from NFS server. If it does not have heavily I/O, then normally a client with 1-2 GB RAM, 2.0 GHz CPU should be OK.
