I'm sorry I didn't communicate this clearly. When I say "network computer",
I mean a particular scheme to make a very inexpensive Java-executing engine
with centralized administration for use in primary school.
As far as I can tell, we are coming close to having all of the Java run-time
components in free state. The web browser might be a bit less complete.
Thanks
