Vmware-player files can be created with vmware workstation. Once saved,
those can be distributed with vmware-player as an image file.

I created one with no hard drive, 128MB RAM, sound and usb to emulate
the thin client in use. It is configured in it virtual bios to PXE boot.

I have enclosed the vmware-player files. Hopefully the list can handle
attachments. If not, I'll see about putting them on my website.

Download vmware-player from vmware.com
