If you use something like vmware or Xen you can even make it appear that each user has a separate PC, running a mixture of windows and linux desktops http://whohastimeforthis.blogspot.com/2005/09/wyse-up-at-home.html http://www.ndiyo.org/systems * if you need to have a PC on all the time to share files, or as a music server or print server look at very low power NAS products. NSLU2 is great, 2-3W when running from a flash memory stick and a full set of linux tools: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/ People have even used the NSLU2 to power on/off printers when print jobs are queued. - Roderick Williams Mon, 30 Apr 2007 11:05:33 +0100
