Hi,
There aren't too many thin clients out there which support oVirt/RHEV.
I did a few VDI projects with oVirt and RHEV and I can recommend the Igel UD5 Thin Client: https://www.igel.com/en/products/igel-thin-clients/ud5-series.html
It's not the cheapest one and not the smallest one, but has good performance and the management software for these thin clients is great.

I wouldn't like to begin a thin client / thin client appliance flame war here, but for Xmas holidays I had to compose a PC for a friend of mine and I had to balance price/performance. At the end I opted for this configuration with Intel NUC: NUC NUC5CPYH: 160 euro 4gb kingston ram: 23 euro samsung 820 250gb ssd disk:77 euro cabled fine logitech mouse and keyboard: 24 euro for a total of 284 euro. You have to add a a monitor but you could already have it working and so not needed. The NUC above has both VGA and HDMI for video. It has Kensington lock and also VESA mount bracket and mounting hole support. I tried before with CentOS 7.2 fully updated but video experience was not so good, due to not so new intel drivers proveded with it. I then tried Fedora 23 and I have to say that I saw very good video performance and also 8Gb full HD mkv movies are played in vlc without any problem. The NUC line provides several CPUs and corresponding video adpaters. This one was tha basic. So I think spice should work nice too. Obviously you eventually loose customized oVirt integration sw provided by Igel or similar (but often fw on these and other ones are not updated so regularly...). If you choose a disk with smaller size you can stay under 250 euros. Or you can avoid it at all using PXE and sort of customized graphical login to the portal. I found also here some reference discussion: https://access.redhat.com/discussions/1165193 (you can see comments also inside the part that doesn't need login) I don't know if it is ok for India delivery though. I think other vendors are coming in this sector now that prices have dropped in respect with one year ago; Gigabyte for example with Brix line or Asus VivoPC or MSI Cubi.... But I didn't explore none of them in deep to compare as a possible and viable thinclient appliance alternative. HIH digging, Gianluca
