Thin Clients

A school system local to me asked about the possibility of moving to 
linux. Of course I talked that up right away. But then this older bloke 
asked about setting up Thin Clients at each school and linking the 
server from each school to the main server. I thought about it (on the 
spot of course) and while it sounds good in theory, I personally dont 
know if that would work OR if the overall benefits pan out.

Im all for moving the schools to Ubuntu. The cost per seat alone is 
almost worth it. But the thin client issue is a little hill I need some 
help with.

Someone with experience with this want to drop some input?
