What is a Thin-Client
The term "thin client" seems to be used as a synonym for both the Net PC and the network computer (NC) , which are somewhat different concepts.
The Net PC is based on Intel microprocessors and Windows software. (Intel was a leader in defining the Net PC specification.)
The network computer (NC) is a concept backed by Oracle and Sun Microsystems that may or may not use Intel microprocessors and would use a Java-based operating system.
Current Thin Technologies
These technologies currently fall into four categories
Network Computers (NCs)
NetPCs
Windows Terminals (Citrix WinFrame/MetaFrame and Microsoft Hydra)
Direct Connect technologies
Base Requirements
Memory
32 MB of RAM, plus 4-8 additional RAM (per user) to support users running their applications on the server
Network Protocol
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Client System Requirements
16-bit Terminal Server Client: Personal computer with an 80386 or higher microprocessor
Windows for Workgroups
8 MB of RAM
4 MB of available hard disk space
VGA or higher-resolution video adapter
High-density 3.5-inch disk drive
Network interface card (NIC) using the Microsoft TCP/IP protocol
Microsoft serial mouse or 100 percent compatible
Client System Requirements
32-bit Terminal Server Client: Personal computer with an 80386 or higher microprocessor
(80486 or higher for Windows NT)
Windows 95 or Windows NT
8 MB of RAM for Windows 95, 16 MB for Windows NT
4 MB of available hard disk space
VGA or higher resolution video adapter
High-density 3.5-inch disk drive
Network interface card (NIC) using the Microsoft TCP/IP protocol
Microsoft serial mouse or 100 percent compatible

What are some advantages to using these products?
Cost effective A significant advantage of WinFrame is
that it can make newer Windows applications available to older PCs.
Everything can be done from a single point.
