I have an HP t5545 thin client as my working enviroment at the company.
Most of the time I only do RDP sessions to my (virtualized) workstation,
but when porting and debugging software, I use XDMCP to open a session
to the rx2600 (old-style window manager, though) that's sitting in the
server room. I haven't looked too deep into mapping the keyboard, but
it would be an interesting exercise.
