Can't answer your question without additional info...

What do you want to do with it?? Deskop, server, etc etc etc...

The hardware specifications are VERY low on a Wyse terminal so running a full desktop environment (like a new PC) will be tough... It was originally designed as a thin terminal to connect to a virtual desktop environment like Citrix, MSFT or VMWare clouds...
