This question is best answered on the k12OSN newslist
k12osn@redhat.com

I can say that I'm using k12ltsp. I'm running a 1.5 ghz chip /1.5 gigs 
RAM with a 160 SCSI. I've got 25+ clients on a 10/100 switched network. 
OOo and firefox work without a hitch using icewm.

A fellow LUGite and I put the whole thing together with donations for 
less than $800. Knowing what I know now, the whole thing could have been 
done for less.

The k12osn list is swarming with people looking for specs on what to 
buy. Few talk about how to do networks on the cheap... sadly.

Good luck
Dennis

We have about 75 terminals on a Dual PIII 733Mhz with 2G RAM and fast scsi.  The
actual storage on this server is pretty small  ~18G because all our storage/home
directories are on another file server via NFS.  This server has been bomb proof
for about 3 years.  we generally have about 40 concurrent sessions.  I'd
definitely recommend dual processors.  Better to have 2 ok processors than one
fast one.  Of course 2 fast ones would be ideal! ;-)
