As much as I hate to admit it, yeah, I'd have to agree with that 
sentiment now.  It's ironic that LTSP was created to foster low-cost 
computing by using older, diskless computers as thin clients...and has 
become a victim of its own success.  Nowadays, we can get pretty 
powerful used desktop computers for as little as $99.  LTSP's goal has 
been achieved...at the cost of its own continued success!

Ironic, indeed....

These days, the "low cost" computer option is to just pick up some good 
used computers and Ghost an image to the boxes.

But oh, boy, when LTSP came out, it sure was needed, and it sure did 
fill that need in excellent style.
