Backup. We were talking about thin-client + big iron server. In that model the big iron server is the central failure point potentially making hundreds (maybe thousands) of terminals depending on it unproductive. This kind of risk is unecessary when you can give an employee a desktop PC so they can work relatively independantly for the same price as the thin client.
