I don't really care that much about windows applications, so I guess I
wasn't that clear.   Our lab still dual-boots XP and from the LTSP server.

 Our issue is the limited bandwidth between the building and accessing
the files over the public Internet.   We do have one windows 2000
advanced server that was give to us, but I'm not sure , Since I don't
like to deal with licensing, I pretty much avoid it whenever possible,
so the windows server it is sitting unused until I reformat it and
install K12LTSP.

 I guess while we are on the subject of windows apps, I would like to
know if there is a way to make windows 2000 advanced server a windows
terminal server, it might be nice for state mandated testing (from
NWEA)  Is it a simple as getting the Terminal Server client licenses, or
do I need different software.
