So we have convinced the local library that there is hope for their old 486 systems. They have received several of these from a program called "Computers for Schools". What we have suggested is connecting these to a central server and run FreeBSD on all of them. This would allow all of these clients to run Netscape from the server in an x window. There is an old P-166 available to run as a server. Anyone have any real world experience playing with this? What kind of performance can we expect? At what point will this be unworkable? 3 workstations? 4? Thanks!
