Linux Terminal Server Essay

I am writing an argument paper about using a Linux Terminal Server to
run the college's network. I would appreciate it if you would send all
of the information on performance, reliablility, and expense to get
running that you could. Also, one thing was brought to my attention that
made me wonder: I was talked to about the whole theory behind it. It was
brought to my attention that you have at most a 1gigahertz cap. Bearing
that in mind, all the processing is done on the server and then sent
out. Now, the argument that I heard today was that it would be
intolerably slow, as the server has to do everything and send it out to
x number of clients over a limited bandwidth (1ghz).
Any help that anyone can give me about this issue would be most helpful.
Please, don't send the LTSP.org. I have gone there and seen that.
