    Sounds like they managed to screw up the best idea they've had in a long time (although terminal services isn't new). I thought Mira might have a turned into a killer app for the home...small simple terminals in the house around a super-fast PC.

    And what's this crap about locking out the "server" from being used? Why a licensing issue, if you've paid for both copies of Windows?

    I've used LTSP, and it's simply awesome with just the smallest amount of tweaking. Definitely an area where linux wins hands down.
