Anything seems quiet after a day in the server room.  Fans suck..... And
blow!

Josh could prob. speak in greater detail than I, however as i've seen it
you're on target.  The host or server is where the apps are run.  The client
is just an box that provides X.  You could hack a windows box to
automatically launch X to get to a linux server.  I'd like to do that in my
office but..............  I'd also like to say that I've come out of the
server room (why I've been so quiet) and the sunlight is refreshing. Theron
