I would ask you to consult the constitution of the United States of America which clearly states that free (as in free speech) is always better. By that definition any free (as in free speech) alternative is better than a non-free alternative, just because it is free.
People who configure routers, switches and other RS232 equipped things do usually know those funny baud rate, parity, stop bit etc. things. Btw. you may run an RS232 at a megabit or more, that is what UMTS adapters usually do, even when you connect them as USB or PCCARD devices. Limits are only in BIOS, you may run is as fast as it is technically possible which is a lot more than the usual max of [insert preferred max. speed here]. The reason for not doing it is to be compatible with older hardware.
It can't be a Pentium III since it arrived early in 1999. You may have a Pentium II system upgraded to Pentium III (we replaced several P II 350-450 with P III 850).
An UPS is not an alternative to redundant PSUs, it just seems that way until your PSU fails. I've got a server room with about 150 servers (physical and virtual) every physical server got redundant PSU and the whole room runs on a PowerWare 9305 30 kVA UPS. ...and yes I should have redundant UPSes too, I just dont have the room for another one.
That RIAA, MPAA BSA etc. are dangerous terrorist organizations conspiring against the constitution of the United States of America and several other western countries. They are more dangerous than armed terrorist because they are trying to minimize the rights/freedom of people. If we need laws like they want we also need a non-transferable copyright which is held only by the artist/writer/inventor and expires when the holder dies.
Don't get me wrong, I do not like or support piracy but the ideas of those people reminds me of Stasi, KGB or NKVD.

I am working on the same problem, we require min 1920x1200 in 32 bit color and max. 50W power consumption.
I've looked at following boxes:
MSI WindBox2 (Atom n270, Intel graphics): OK
HP t5735 (AMD Turion, Radeon graphics): OK but no PXE-boot.
eBox-4860 (VIA Esther): OK
FitPC2 (Atom): Resolution only 1600x1200
All of those are capable of LTSP either as PXE-boot or disk-boot (HP only disk-boot).
The HP is quite nice but I can't get good sound quality out of it, none of them can deliver full screen video in good quality (HP is best due to the good GPU)
All uses std. PC keyboard and mouse, std. laptop RAM and got either 44-pin PATA (HP & eBox) or SATA interface for flash/ssd/harddisk.
Right now we are using them as semi-thin clients, they got OpenSuSE 11.x with KDE but with all user applications removed except
Citrix client
rdesktop
VMware OpenClient
VNC client
Firefox
VLC (We want people to be able to use the Internet directly from the thin client with full multimedia support.)
There are some funny features like: 10+ levels clipboard (from OpenSuSE), Alt-Tab changing between client task instead of server task, mounted USB-drives are not at the root of the drive on Citrix server, they are in a directory.
We do not have any graphic-heavy applications (we are a financial business) so it is woking quite well.
I've recently read that SAAB (no, not the almost killed by GM car company) are testing CAD/CAM on thin clients......and they are quite sure now that it will work.
That is not correct, it is the same law (even in the same paragraph): You are allowed to copy or/and decrypt your own DVDs for personal use all other copying/decrypting is prohibitet. You may decrypt a DVD for the purpose of viewing it on a otherwise unsuported system if you have the legal right to view it on a normal DVD player.
Yes, I've read that law...
btw. You do not need to decrypt anything to make a sector by sector copy.

First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win.
We are now entering phase 3...
Just like there was No Such Agency back in the 1950'ties and 1960'ties ?

I've migrated several people to OpenSuSE with success over the past years. Everything works, all nedded software is in the repository.

If you've got some of those you simply:
or restore disk image
It may be much faster than finding and removing malware... especially if you've got a disk image.

Doesn't matter, it has been installed behind peoples back and without any possibility of disabling. It is no better than the Sony rootkit.
