I think he was referring to Sun SmartCards. It's kinda like
a SecurID card. The idea is that you can hand them out to
your staff and they don't have to have a username/password to
log in, they just swipe in. With the SunRay client setup,
it will bring up your last workspace and applications like if
you had suspended a normal Sun workstation and booted it up,
but a whole lot faster.
