I too had the same frustrating experience of not finding what I needed 
in one place. For myself, I worked up a Centos based server which failed 
to work in the classroom/lab where I deployed it. I'm now trying a 
ubuntu based server, and having a lot of difficulties in getting my t/c 
to boot. I've looked at the fedora ltsp server on a usb stick, couldn't 
get that to write to a stick - I don't run fedora anywhere here. All of 
this is to replace our aging ltsp4.2 server on FC6 which will not run an 
app we need for testing (Oaks secure browser). We have (as most of us 
here do - I presume) a collection of old technology we use as t/c's that 
just do not want to work with the newer implementations of ltsp. Kinda 
sucks to have to get rid of that old junk just to run the shiny new 
server and IMHO, moves us farther away from the ideals on which ltsp is 
based.

So, best of luck choosing and let us know how you make out when you do 
decide.
