Mac Pro with thin clients

Hello,

I am looking for a configuration of a Mac Pro server with thin clients so that software and data is centralized on one location.
Is that possible with Mac OS X ? And does Apple have thin clients ?

I have the same question. I am about to buy a Mac Mini with Leopard server, if I can connect thin clients to it. I have good old PCs with Win and Linux, I want to use them as thin clients

You could set up the Mac as an X Windows client and load X Windows on your thin client machines. Of course you'd be limited to X-compatible applications.
