What's a good public access terminal solution using old PCs and remote VMs?
- by greenfingers
Has anyone had experience using VMs as remote desktops for public access terminals (e.g. an internet cafe)
In our case we don't want to charge money for access but I figure this solution has a few advantages, such as:
can easily re-build VMs daily, erasing private data and clutter
can use rickety old PCs for the 'dumb' terminals
less IT support needed on site
Can you suggest tools to help do this? Keeping the terminals up and running as much of the time as possible is the main priority, so they need to boot straight into full screen remote desktop and stay there.
