Thin clients, machines where the client computer, the one a typical end user might use one that has some (very modest) smarts, while a server does all the heavy lifting has always struck me as one of those interesting, BUT, BUT, BUT type technologies. The buts include okay, the client machines can be very light, but the server has to be very loaded with RAM, hard drive, etc., so the cost savings may not be great. The time / effort to set up one of these systems can be significant. Still it is an ... interesting ... technology. Here is a little video about doing thin clients, where the server is an 8 GB RAM Raspberry Pi 5 Model B, with clients consisting of a Raspberry Pi 4 B, a Pi 3 B+, and a Pi Zero 2W. https://youtu.be/poMLbCtGg_M?si=Peqpf9nDNSB12y8t As a way to play with the technology this could be neat. If you have one of the (few) cases where this technology might make sense, well here is a start point. The two types of situations that I could see making sense include point of sale systems for largee'ish stores (ie: make sure each POS terminal is locked down), or home systems where you want to (try to) make sure little children can't access ... naughty ... material (with the word naughty being defined however you like...). Basically places where you want the client machines tightly locked down.
