[school-discuss] [Fwd: BOUNCE schoolforge-discuss@schoolforge.net: Non-member submission from ["Colin Dellow" <cldellow@ndschool.org>]]

A school that I volunteer at is re-evaluating its five-year technology
plan.  Currently, they're all-Mac.  I'm putting together a plan that would
head towards X terms and terminal server computing.

However, one big obstacle (among others) that I *know* I'll run into is who
will support it once I'm gone in a few years.  Does anyone have any
compelling evidence that support need not be local? i.e. that these setups
can be reliably managed remotely?  (Specific instances of it happening
would be nice.)

If all goes well, I'd like to put together the tools and information I've
used into a handy package for similar case.

Thanks in advance!
