There was a recent article on this posted at LinuxToday -- within the past two weeks, IIRC. There may also be docs at the Debian website and/or through Google. Hardware depends on your setup. For simple X Terminals, minimal hardware (486, Pentium), with a good graphics card, high-speed networking, and a good monitor, should be sufficient. For various types of local processing, you're going to want more memory and CPU. Look for savings in administration, not hardware, though you may see some advantages there as well. -- Karsten M.
