True or False: Thin clients require a network connection to remote servers to perform data processing.

Thin clients are essentially lightweight computers that depend heavily on remote servers for their computing resources and data processing capabilities. They typically do not have the necessary hardware to perform intensive processing locally, which is why they rely on a constant network connection to these servers. All applications and data are managed and run on the server side, allowing the thin client to act merely as a point of access for the user interface and interaction.

Without a network connection, a thin client cannot function as intended because it lacks the local processing power to handle tasks independently. In contrast, traditional desktop computers can execute programs and access data stored locally, but that is not the case for thin clients. Their design is specifically aimed at leveraging centralized resources, making a network connection essential for their operation.

Other options may suggest varying degrees of connection or scenarios where processing could occur without a network, but those do not align with the fundamental nature of how thin clients are designed and operate in a computing environment.
