AJAX

AJAX is a thin client technology? I'm a little confused by this. I'd have placed it firmly in the hybrid category. JulesH 18:55, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The definition paragraph (the first paragraph ) gives a bad examples when it refers to dumb terminals (or even inteligent terminals) as clients. A terminal (dumb or inteligent ) is an simply IO device. 

it does not run any programs itself.

It does not use services run on a servor computer. Rather it is simply a device for entering and receiving data to and from a computer running a program. If such a system were called Client-Server, 

the term would not have to have been invented!
