Diskless node: Principles of operation, Comparison with thin clients & Distinction between diskless nodes and centralized computing

A diskless node (or diskless workstation) is a workstation or personal computer without disk drives, which employs network booting to load its operating system from a server. (A computer may also be said to act as a diskless node, if its disks are unused and network booting is used.)
