Thin Clients. 5 watts versus 500 watts.

Just look at any large office. Each PC pumping out 300 watts plus. All that heat. 100's and 100's of PC's. Each PC has to be updated with new versions of software.

Air conditioning. Just think how much a large office in boiling Texas is gonna save with thin client this summer.

No brainer in my view. Perhaps the BS's can convince everyone for a while, but reality will kick in for sure when profits have to be made.

Just a thought.
