A form of so-called thin-client computing, a computer terminal acts as an interface between a user and a system server that has a CPU and storage capacity.
SIC 3575 applies to COMPUTER TERMINALS.

For a mainframe with terminals, data processing takes place on the mainframe computer only as the terminals are 'dumb'. Conversely, in a network of computers, each computer has its own processor.
Computing terminals without power do not have the ability to compute. Computing devices require electrical power to function and perform computations.
Centralized computing is computing done at a central location, using terminals that are attached to a central computer. The computer itself may control all the peripherals directly (if they are physically connected to the central computer), or they may be attached via a terminal server. Alternatively, if the terminals have the capability, they may be able to connect to the central computer over the network. The terminals may be text terminals or thin clients, for example.

they are typically only capable of transferring characters to and from the computer and positioning the cursor as requested by the computer. some have additional capability, depending on the model of the terminal, but they are not capable of independent computations or data storage.

disconnect both terminals from the battery, then touch the terminals together, not connected to the battery, voila! you're done.
from what i have been told that you disconnect the battery terminals and then reconnect them. that should reset the computer
Me personally? Windows XP and Windows 2003 terminals.
usuallyyou just disconnect the battery terminals for about 3 minutes.
