Not-so-OT point of philosophy

I started internal medicine rotation at the Loma Linda VA Hospital today and noted that the entire place is crawling with WinTerms (by Wyse, no less), running WinCE, connected via Citrix to a Win2K Advanced Server host. There are only a few "real" PCs there -- in fact, I think the Macs might outnumber them. Before all of you cry off-topic, doesn't it seem odd to anyone we're now full circle and back to low-power terminals connected to a "mainframe," now that corporate America has gotten off its fat client kick? Compared to the WinTerms, my old Wyse terminal looks so nice. -- ----------------------------- personal page: http://www.armory.com/~spectre/ -- Cameron Kaiser, Point Loma Nazarene University * ckaiser(a)stockholm.ptloma.edu -- If your happiness depends on anyone else, you've got a problem. -- R.
