"Jack PC is a patented technology offering a fully managed computer neatly integrated into a standard LAN jack.

Just as a footnote, this is technology developed in Israel...actually the first piece of hardware I ever seen from there. If i didn't know better, one would think this was developed directly for the Mossad or Shin Bet...whoops did I blab now  |

First, Israel develops lots of stuff, second this is a thin client, it's not a computer, you can use it to access a terminal server or cytrix server.

Doubt it's a scam...why wouldn't it work. There are plenty of terminals everywhere, and this is pretty much the same, just more "home-friendly"

Yes this is not a problem at all, just look at X.org, you can run an Xserver on a computer and log into it from another computer on your network, this is nothing new

Don't have the time to research what models were developed here in Haifa, but I'm sure Dror ot Mark will hop on this real soon. They'll enlighten you enough.
