"Multiplied" Linux Desktop Migration Strategy for Novell SLED 10 and openSUSE
10.1
,----[ Quote ]
| Following is a six-page white paper that summarises the value of pursuing
| a Multiplied Novell SLED 10 or openSUSE strategy. Modern PCs spend most
| of the day idle. The Multiplied Linux Desktop strategy allows you to
| leverage this unused computing power and connect up to 10 full-featured
| workstations to a SINGLE, shared SLED 10 or openSUSE 10.1 computer.
| Ideal for Linux computer labs, Linux thin clients, Linux Internet cafés
| and Linux point-of-sale terminals.

Here is just one story among many.
Linux kiosks come to the aid of natural disaster victims

| When faced with the aftermath of a natural disaster like Hurricane Katrina
| or the Boxing Day tsunami, you might assume that having Internet access
| would be the last thing on victims' or rescuers' minds. But Steve Hargadon
| of TechnologyRescue.com found out that his public Web kiosks were an answer
| to prayers for people affected by Katrina, Rita, and most recently,
| Cyclone Larry.
