Yeah. The amount of money you spend for these things and what you actually get for that money is insane.

I hope your boss didn't pay north of 100 bucks per. What's the upside to this deal?

Ha, these costs ~$350 I could have done this and more with a Raspberry Pi
This is a rollout of new equipment for our new inventory system. All these things need to do is launch a Citirix Receiver. They can do it with a wire, but I'm not running wire to 50 machines spread over God's creation!

I ran it for a while on an old K6-II pc. It's an interesting little distro that (if nothing else) shows how bloated things have become.
Here's what someone had to do to get it running on a tc with only 512MB flash (I dunno about wifi though):

True though!
Ken: will wifi be reliable on 50 units? With cheap small adapters?
