So, a buddy of mine dropped off a box of 18 Wyse 3040 & 5010 thin clients. I believe they all run W10 embedded, but doing some research, I think I can also run a lightweight Linux OS like maybe Tiny Core. The 5010 can run SuSE Linux Desktop 11, ThinOS, or ThinOS PCOIP acording to Dell.

So, the burning question I have today is ‘If you were gifted a box of 18 Wyse 3040 & 5010 thin clients, what would you do with them’? I want something I can incorporate into my already established homelab.

Inundate me with ideas!

    On a more artistic side I had a buddy that used many thin clients to manage video projectors to make “holographic” projections for art and music shows (the goal is to synchronise and manage all elements to have a cool effect)

    That’s hella creative. Hmmmm…sooo many ideas I didn’t even think about. Thanks
