No, no...  there are about upto 100 thin-clients.  I'm just playing
around with the specs for server which can service all those
thin-clients.  There will probably be more than 1 server.  But, as
starting point, 1GB spread over 100 users means 10MB/user which is good
enough, so I say it's do able with 1 server.
