Re: PXES on a thin client

That Vortex86 box is known as the eBox-II, its now superceeded by 
eBox-2.6, same outlook but different layout and adds serial ports and 
most importantly, 100%.
 fanless.  It also solves a problem with the parallel port with printers.

Theres also the eBox-III just around the corner (uses Via Eden-N 
processor and also 100% fanless) but slightly more expensive.

If you can get a hold of the eBox-2.6 in your geographical location then 
I think thats pretty much the lowest cost thin client out there and 
works well with PXES (speaking from personal experience).

Thanks,
Ben
