Re: Multiple users - one PC - best product??

Interesting......do you remember all of the different units that you considered/tested? 

The basic use that we're looking at is simply in our libraries - we'd lock them down such that they would only be used 
for accessing the library research materials, library databases, etc....nothing "intense"....

Thanks,

Michael

Aloha,

I remember us putting this in a test environment and generating a
short list of challenges including issues with streaming video as well
as some concerns of sniffing other users sessions. If I remember
correctly each little cluster group of computers all shared a single
IP.  We chose not to implement this!
