== Westminster Links (Open Source / LTSP Project) ==
[[Image:workstation5.png|right|thumb|300px|Typical workstation located in the Westminster Computer Lab]]
Seneca College (with the help of Murray Saul) created a Linux Computer Lab at Westminster United Church.
Currently the computer lab uses LTSP (Linux Terminal Server Project) that connects workstations (fat clients)
to a Linux server.The purpose of this project is to help Westminster develop a Linux lab support structure, and to become
self-sufficient.
