Rationale: The thin client is primarily a display, keyboard, and mouse or other pointing device. The minimal hardware requirements for this model give rise to the name "thin client" as opposed to "fat client," as seen in traditional client/server technology. PCs used in traditional client/server networks had local drives or storage devices so they are referred to as fat clients.
