[K12OSN] Connecting from Windows

I'm using this method as well. The big advantage I have found is that
sound works without any hassle over compatible hardware as windows
handles the drivers. To make access simple I have created an LTSP user
on windows and changed the shell to a customized replacement. This way
they only have two options, open NX or Log Off.  They can now logon to a
linux desktop in 15seconds right from the windows logon screen. And that
is record time for windows!

I think nxclient is the way to go for now, since this would be soley
introducing the linux desktop into the classroom. That way everything
still works with Windows how it did before and there aren't any problems
:D

Yes you could do something like that with NXclient...
so they could experience the Linux side of Life on their Microsoft
machines.
