Shane,

I am not sure if NSM is selling any of the new LAN products. I haven't seen any announcements of new customers.

On a different note, Wyse seems to like MediaGX:

Few moving parts
As with its predecessors, the 5355SE has no hard disk, floppy disk, or CD-ROM drive. In fact, it has very few moving parts-the "on" button and the keyboard, for instance--a move that gives the computers durability and a longer lifetime. The computer uses a heat-driven water cooling system instead of a fan to cool the National Semiconductor Cyrix MediaGX chip running at 200 MHz. With no fan, the computer case is sealed so no dust can get in.

The back of the diminutive box is packed with ports, including Universal Serial Bus, PC Card, and serial ports, allowing people to plug in everything from bar code scanners to digital cameras for teleconferencing.
