NOTE: Diskless terminals will typically be used without their hard drives for computer labs. We only want certain makes and models and only certain processor types and speeds. This means the low end diskless terms could be slower than the regular cutoff. Use this flow chart to help you determine if a system is slated to be a diskless terminal.

This is a graph with borders and nodes. Maybe there is an Imagemap used so the nodes may be linking to some Pages.
