Yes, Bobby. Apple is making a thin-client Apple terminal similiar in concept to a Windows-Based terminal. I.e. it only works on one operating system.

IBM prepares to ship OS/2 thin-client package

Between this and Lotus' eSuite, there appears to be some emerging and perhaps compelling reasons to move into thin-client based network computing. And they're not delayed by Hydra.

Speaking of eSuite, there's a three page ad in BusinessWeek for eSuite which shows a desk with a computer on top. But not just any computer. A Network Station. The ad does not point it out or use the term Network Station but it tells me that IBM/Lotus is taking the Network Station seriously.
