First, there were computers, bulky ass computers. I remember the first computer I played with weighted a million pounds. These few years, corporations started thin-clients. Cut down the cost and spaces tremendously. But, just how “thin” these thin-clients have to be? My answer is the smaller the better.

Look at this baby from ChipPC. Weight less than a pound, equipped with all the connections (VGA, LAN, USB and Audio in/out). Just a little bigger than your PDA device. I hooked it up with the Citrix server, it’s smooth like rest of the thin-clients that are 4 times it’s size. No, you cannot play “Call of Duty 4″ on it. We use it for productivity stuff like Office and medical software. BTW, they have another cool model that mounts onto the wall, looks like a power outlet. One day, these small guys will take over the business information systems. And will eliminate the real PC’s.
