Topic:  Performing Large scale thin client Linux deployments in schools

"We just got done deploying 10,000 Linux thin clients on 300 servers to 
46,000 students in 88 schools with centralized management and 
centralized authentication using 100% open source software.  We did this 
in nine months, although it continues to be a work in progress as new 
features are added and existing features are tweaked.   After meeting 
with education users and LTSP developers at a recent conference, we 
think  this is one of, if not the, largest managed LTSP deployment in 
production."


See you there!
