There is actually a project for this: 
http://www.edu.helsinki.fi/atk/ltsp_kiosk/

but in this case, there is no powerful server anywhere. We are using only old 
laptops. So it has to be a local system.

If BeOS had good hardware support and it could run Firefox, it would be 
perfect since it startups so fast and does not need any administration..

But now I need to find something based on Open Source..
