I personally use Thinstation.

i usually work with FreeNX and Thinstation with this two solutions:

1. thinstation installed in CF, with CF2IDE adapter inserted into old
(sometime VERY old) pc; so i can convert old pc to thinclient ->
TRASHWARE;

2. thinstation distributed over ethernet using etherboort image; so i can use
- etherboot enabled (old or new) pc,
- tiny pc, or
- something like this:
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Barebone/Products_Spec.aspx?ProductID=2436
as thinclient;

It's true: forum & mailing list very active (as in FreeNX, of course)!
