I'm not sure what the market is, but I can only think of two major markets
(not going into vertical industries).  Those being the consumer market and
the commercial market.  I think that businesses should have a strong
interest in LTSP as it has huge money saving potential.

However, I think there is demand growing in the consumer market (perhaps
just not yet known).  For example in our home we have 2 children that are
of hacking age, my wife and myself.  We all use the computer.  Often times
we like to use it at the same time.  Currently the problem is solved
because I have a half dozen boxen in the house.

However, I have really, really been considering buying a few 15" flat
panels and some old eBay boxes and making 3 or 4 LTSP stations that all
run off my biggest box.  I am certain homes with highspeed internet and
more than two family members are faced with a similar dilemma.  LTSP could
become a cheap way to do 'internet' terminals in each room of the house. 
Basically for cost of the monitor and $40 bucks you can get a terminal.
