Nice stuff, set to leverage the imminent arrival of centralized servers supporting virtualized sessions that can be accessed by ultra-cheap thin clients.

This is what SUN wanted to do years ago but couldn't do it cheaply enough to compete with commodity PCs. Now that the servers ARE commodity PCs which can scale to support many virtualized sessions, the thin-client concept becomes cost-effective.

And the benefits are enormous... Each user's sessions are not locked onto a particular machine. Hardware can be upgraded/expanded/repaired in the fly. Performance will scale on demand. Sessions are accessible from anywhere.

You don't hear much about this market, just a hint of a breeze for now. but it will explode into a Category 5 hurricane virtually overnight.
