are you sure that the graphics card is actually a mbp? it is only acceptable in wider society to drop that much cash on an apple.

i ran dual 670s till july of last year and surprisingly they could run most games on mid-high settings with no AA just fine, at 4K, after some loving around in nvidia inspector. it wasnt a 100% boost when i added the second card or anything but it really helped to tide me over on the cheap

lol i remember at the school district i worked at, someone had the idea to save a bundle of money by doing thin clients in most of the computer labs. "it's great, these kids are just doing word documents and web-browsing!" i think this was shortly before dual-core chips were a thing. i seem to recall the main terminal server being a blade chassis comprising six blades of dual-socket late-model Pentium III chips. think there was also a four-socket server that got deployed somewhere. basically like 20 terminals per CPU. then Flash got really popular, so a couple of sessions with Flash-heavy webpages could bring a whole lab to a grinding halt. so the easy solution is just to block Flash, right? well, the textbook publishers started including links to 'enhanced content' or whatever that - surprise! - relied on Flash. ultimately everyone wound up hating the thin clients and we wound up going back to regular PCs for everyone. i'd be curious how well it'd work today with the monster number of cores you can pack into a server. on the other hand i think they're just doing chromebooks and ipads for everyone now anyway.

We have this for work (well vdis) and it works well enough that I don't hate doing dev work on it. Apparently it isn't any cheaper in terms of hardware than normal desktops but is way easier to manage

Haha that reminds me of when I was a web dev and a clueless client kept complaining we did a poo poo job on the animations on their website; they claimed they were super choppy. Eventually it became clear their office was using Citrix.

graph posted:vdi is completely feasible now for basically anywhere. it's not cost-saving though in terms of equipment/licensing its really pretty good and cuts on replacing field hardware complexity; just chuck the little box and grab another, theyre all the same we use them for some roles and its almost native smoothness for performance, minus towers and beefy dev laptops. the only issue we have is if a conference room lacks a vdi box, so some people cant present or do much but they tend to lug a personal laptop for the rare meeting
