You people really should give Sun Ray a go.
Step 1: Pickup a cheap Sun Ray client from eBay.
Step 2: Install SRSS (<a href="http://www.sun.com/software/sunray" title="sun.com">http://www.sun.com/software/sunray</a sun.com>) on your favourite distro. (Be prepared to spend some time on this step if you distro is anything other than RHEL, Suse, CentOS or Solaris).
Step 3: Enjoy zero client admistration, noiseless clients that rarely break, and smartcard based hot desking, transparent simple 2D acceleration and audio support.
Keep in mind that I know of many sites that run LTSP and Sun Ray clients off the same server.
While we are talking about alternatives...
