2. A thin client is a type of computer that operates similar to a regular desktop or laptop but does not have
a built-in hard drive for data storage. Instead, it relies on an operating system (OS) and application
software installed on it. Thin Clients utilize "terminal services" (TS) to send requests over local area
networks (LAN) to centralized servers to access information and applications.

Thin clients are equipped with a local
operating system and flash memory, but they
store all applications and data on a central
server. They offer features such as local
printing, device support, web browsing, and
network computing. These devices provide a
cost-effective solution for companies, as they
can operate efficiently within a budget.
