Laptop as client is not dependent on local resources and that is while

Thank you for your help so far.
My laptop has 128mb of ram and a p3 800, It was only a test to see how diskless
worked, Please can you give me some tips on a perfect on a good server client
setup, I plan to have a server with 10 clients and would like it to run smoothly.

Thanks again
