What do you use for an emulator on the Neowares? What did they cost (ballpark) ?

Different operating system? License to Microsoft vs. 'free' Linux?

btw, we have hundreds of Neowares (running embedded NT and XP) and
we've been satisfied.

I have deployed many CLI MT1500 thin clients with the TermPro emulator and I'm very happy with their performance, however, with XP embedded they're nearly $500 each. We use these for 5250 emulation, browsing and IP printing of browser pages.

Now, today I received a flyer advertising a HP Neoware thin client running Linux for $269. Anyone familiar with this thin client or why it's so inexpensive compared to the CLI models?

Thank you,
