    This is OLD. Jade has been selling this product for over 2 years now.

    Thin clients can catch a virus, it will just exist on the terminal server. Also, thin clients don't "process data". That's why they are "thin". They just present the data, the server does all the heavy lifting.

    For some reason, I'm seeing a red-lettered message just to the left of the image on this post: 'ERROR: Not found'. Thought you might want to look at it. I'm using Firefox.

    Well, at least it isn't Dell making them. Burn your whole house down if they did.

    This is a good idea. I think that it could be improved though with modern technology... I suggest upgrading the flash memory space to 1-2GB and put a version of Linux that has applications available for use. Then the computer would be usable as a thin client or when the network is down, it could be used for basic tasks.

    The design is briliant though.

    I understood that the Israeli's trusted Linux, and totally distrusted Microsoft, with all of it's built in spy network back-doors, but, I suppose there are stupid folks there, too.

    In other words, it is incomprehensible to me that anyone uses such a pathetic piece of expensive crapware, when much better is available, such as BSD and Linux!
    Both have been available, in recent releases, Free! Can't fix stupid!
