And a Raspberry Pi.
- undersuit 7y agoNope, you plug multiple monitors and peripherals into the multiseat box. Terminal(emulator)s are only used over long distances.
- rumanator 7y agoPlugging in an underpowered and resource-starved raspberry pi doesn't give you the same user experience as plugging in a Ryzen7 with 32GB of RAM that you already paid for and have lying around and idling at 5%
- Koshkin 7y agoI guess people have different ideas about what a thin terminal means.
- rumanator 7y agoYou're the one confusing a thin terminal with a multi-seat system. This thread is discussing multi-user and multi-seat systems and thin clients is a whole different beast.
- MarkusWandel 7y agoNot really. A thin client is just another way to add a seat to a multiuser machine. Thin clients are just fine for a lot of real work (programming, office tasks). But for home use you need clean 1080p fullscreen video playback and none of the traditional thin clients can handle that.
