KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Sept. 6, 2001 (PRIMEZONE) -- Neoware Systems, Inc., (Nasdaq:NWRE), the leading supplier of award-winning software and solutions for the Appliance Computing market, will demonstrate its family of thin client appliances at Networld+Interop Paris 2001, being held Tuesday through Thursday, September 18-20, 2001, at the Parc des Expositions de Paris, Porte de Versailles, Paris, France. Neoware's products will be displayed on the Citrix stand, number 16, at the conference.
Neoware's Eon and Capio thin client appliances are cost-effective alternatives to personal computers used by businesses and are powerful replacements for green-screen terminals. Used in conjunction with Citrix MetaFrame or Microsoft Terminal Services, Neoware's Eon and Capio appliances allow users to run virtually any application from a server, plus connect to mainframes, midrange systems, and the Internet. Unlike personal computers, Neoware's thin client appliances can be centrally managed and remotely configured, which greatly simplifies and lowers the cost of desktop administration. Because of this, Eon and Capio can save customers up to 80% of the total cost of ownership of personal computers, resulting in significant cost savings for enterprise customers and a return on up-front investment within the first year of ownership.
Networld+Interop will host over 550 companies and 60,000 IT professionals, offering sessions on network management and operations; Internet service provider and security issues; intranets and networked applications; and data, voice, and video applications in the enterprise. Topics for the conference include e-commerce, telecoms, mobile systems, quality of service, and CRM. More information on Networld+Interop Paris can be found at www.interop.fr/.
"Taking part in Networld+Interop enables Neoware to demonstrate the capabilities of our award-winning Eon and Capio thin client appliances to the IT community in France," stated Michael Kantrowitz, president and CEO of Neoware Systems. "Neoware has significantly expanded its operations throughout Europe this past year. We're partnering with Citrix at Networld+Interop to reach a focused group of customers looking for thin client appliances that enable access to virtually any application, without the cost and complexity of personal computers."
