Schools should wise up and not keep purchasing expensive PCs.

Instead they should go for Thin Client hardware, and in doing so they will reduce their TCO and increase their ROI in the medium and long terms.

This type of hardware also eliminates all the usual security hassles that schoolkid geeks can present.

The modern Thin client is a long way different from the old dumb terminal systems that many of us worked with years ago.

HP and Wyse provide excellent Thin client boxes and these can be spec'd to suit the job.
