Press Release Summary = Centrally manage thin clients from any vendor & convert PCs
2 thin clients FREE

Press Release Body = 2X ThinClientServer 4.0 provides users with Windows
applications without the need for VISTA or XP at the desktop.

London, UK, 11 January 2007 - 2X ThinClientServer v.4 aims to rid besieged Network
administrators from the headache of the upcoming Vista upgrade. Rather than sinking
deeper into the swamp of fat client administration, Vista hardware upgrades and
Vista activation, administrators can use 2X ThinClientServer to deploy a secure,
centrally managed Linux desktop which runs any Windows application (including Vista
applications) via RDP.

\"2X ThinClientServer protects companies from exploding software license,
maintenance, hardware and energy costs. With Vista activation server and the
unavoidable hardware and software upgrades, the administrator\'s tasks, become ever
more demanding. Now more than ever, a hardware and OS independent centrally managed
thin client operating system is the right way forward for every company,\" states
Nikolaos Makris, CEO 2X.

How 2X ThinClientServer works

2X ThinClientServer deploys a small footprint Linux-based OS to old PCs, new low
cost PCs and to popular thin client devices (HP, Neoware, Wyse, Maxspeed and more).
Thin clients always boot the latest version of the OS from the ThinClientServer.
Hardware & connection settings (including resolution, logging and more) are
retrieved from the server when the client logs on, making thin clients easy to
manage.

Users\' connection settings are managed centrally

Users\' connection settings such as Terminal Server name, type (RDP, Citrix ICA or
NX), screen resolution and more, can be managed centrally via the web-based
management interface. There is no need to push out these connection settings to the
thin client devices, because they are retrieved when the user logs on.

Connection settings are managed based on username, department or thin client

Most thin client management software can only configure connection settings based on
device. 2X ThinClientServer links connection settings to Active Directory/LDAP
usernames, groups or OU\'s (organizational units). This reduces the administration
involved with adding users and managing roaming users.
