As it has been changed to 'older' now, there seems to be no difference 
any more in the instructions concerning the reuse of old hardware 
(thin clients or diskless workstations). But there's quite a difference.

Running old hardware as diskless workstation only makes sense if the 
hardware would qualify to run as workstation (maybe harddisk excluded). 
IMO this has been the reason for 'newer hardware'.
