hi

what's the difference between Cloud and ThinClient?

thx

Hello johnywhy,

See here:
http://porteus-kiosk.org/cloud.html

and here:
http://porteus-kiosk.org/thinclient.html

Thank you.

hi, thx, yep, i've already seen those pages, but there's a lot of overlap.
it's unclear to me what the difference is.

it sounds from descriptions, that ThinClient does everything Cloud does, plus more network utils.

Is that correct?

thx

ThinClient depends on the server which you must configure while Cloud works mostly standalone.

See Wikipedia article:
Thin client

Server is required? I was able to run ThinClient by itself, tho.
