It makes one wonder! I've tried to talk / email anyone in AMD that
LTSP is the killer app just waiting to use all
the good AMD products from thin-client Geode to Opteron servers but they
miss the point totally! they keep talking
about windows CE / hardisks / server 2003 etc I've suggested that they
should talk to the likes of Jim and Eric and develop
hardware packages to target schools / business's But unfortunately they
don't get it!?
