x4600 rebuild
Well, we got the cool new x4600 in place. I used the existing image from the 4100's so that we could see it in action. It's been up long enough now that we've tested it's physical properties. Now I wiped it and set up the 2 ~140 GB drives in a mirror. This will be the system drive. The 2 ~72 GB drives will be striped to allow for improved performance.
I'll need to start from scratch, so will welcome any suggestions to improve the user experience.
Changes I intend to implement:
Re-add the run command to all profiles
Background pic that tells you what TS you are on
Foxit reader (pending upon feedback from the library)
Office Converters for 2K7
BlueJ
JEdit
Eclipse
Python
I'd like to get a launch bar solution in place as well. The list works well for most folks, but the visually led could use some help.

Sun Driver Set update
The four thin client servers run off of Sun Fire x4100 boxes. I'v updated the driver set to Sun's latest. Most intersetingly, this included new drivers for the four processors in each box.
I've done 5,6, and 8. They were a few active connections on 7, so that'll have to wait till later.
