Thin-clients: THE Solution to the Security problem

Dear List,

Currently managing IT Security involves ensuring that Workstations are properly 
patched, antivirus are installed on all the machines & updates are installed 
correctly

Now if we replace all of these PCs with thin-clients, whereby they will access 
servers (may be Terminal Servers) to get their mails, get Web access, does it 
not eliminate the potentially large pool of 'vulnerable' machines, and hence 
greatly decrease the Risk Exposure of an organisation's network?

Is this the solution to manage Security more effectively?
