RE: Thin clients with 5250 emulators

Well, a Neoware with Windows CE is only $259 but it doesn't do IP printing and that's the ONLY reason we're using XP embedded. I believe our CLI CE units were $400. So it looks like the emulator piece is about $150.

Now, today I received a flyer advertising a HP Neoware thin client
running Linux for $269. Anyone familiar with this thin client or why
it's so inexpensive compared to the CLI models?

They're probably cheaper because the other one has a couple hundred per
unit going to pay "The Bill" for WinDoze.

Linux is cheaper because it belongs to everybody.
