[AccessD] Network booting Windows XP

No, I am looking to BOOT my computer from a copy of Windows stored on a
server.  I want a diskless workstation, full on machine, everything except
disks, which, when powered up, goes out to the network and boots off the
network, then runs a folding program (specifically, or anything else I might
want to run for that matter).

Hi John:

There is always VNC. It is a cheap (free) virtual network. I am not sure of
the size of a client but I would suspect it will render down to 1.44 MB. It
was an open source product for a few years but it may be migrating.

Check it out.
