+Thin Client / Single Board Computer
+
+The Thin Client, a low cost high power single board computer, has been
+designed to provide intuitive graphical displays in embedded systems.
+
+For more details, contact Applied Data Systems or see
+http://www.flatpanels.com/products.html
+
+Current Linux support for this product has been provided by Nicolas Pitre
+<nico@cam.org>.
+
+It's currently possible to mount a root filesystem via NFS providing a
+complete Linux environment.  Otherwyse a ramdisk image may be used.  Use
+'make thinclient_config' before any 'make config'.  This will set up
+defaults for ThinClient support.
+
+Supported peripherals:
+- SA1100 LCD frame buffer (only 8bpp yet)
+- on-board SMC 92C94 ethernet NIC
+- SA1100 serial port
+- possibly UCB1200 audio (not tested yet)
+
+To do:
+- touchscreen driver
+- flash memory access
+- 16bpp frame buffer support
+- extra (external) serial port driver
+- pcmcia
+- some console keyboard support (maybe IR?)
+- everything else!  :-)
+
+Any contribution can be sent to nico@cam.org and will be greatly welcome!
