Subject: Dumb Terminal?
A *long* time ago when I worked for motorola we had what we called dumb
terminal they were little more than monitors connected though the lan to
a powerhouse machine (or at least what counted for a power house back
then). Recently I was reading an article (which I can't find now) where
Sun had these kewl little boxes that connected to your monitor and your
lan and you could use them as dumb terminals to a sun box (not sure if
you could use them with linux). I *love* this idea If I could free up my
desk space move *all* my computers to my computer room (most are now but
I still have two bulky ones in my office and my admin has a few in
hers), and just place this cute little box on my desk I'd be a happy
person. So does anyone know of any good dumb terminal for Linux? Yeah I
know I can *make* any computer into a dumb terminal but mostly what I'm
looking for is something small and something that will display very good
graphics (in case I ever have a lan game night or something). Since I
don't think there is much to this I don't think it should be costly but
my main conciderations are small, fast, works with linux (terminal
servers) and good graphics. Anyone have any suggestions?
