KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Nov. 1, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- Neoware Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:NWRE), the leading supplier of award-winning software, services, education, and support for the thin client appliance computing market will demonstrate the latest in thin client solutions in booth #41 at Citrix iForum 2002 in Orlando, Florida. Neoware will be debuting the Neoware Voyager as well as featuring ThinPATH PC Software, giving attendees a glimpse into the future of thin client computing.
The conference, which is being held November 3rd to the 6th 2002 at the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resort in Orlando, is designed to show Citrix end-users and prospects the necessary tools and knowledge to improve productivity and streamline information management. Users will learn how to optimize business processes, get flexible solutions for delivering applications and information to their organizations and see the latest Citrix products.
In addition to their family of thin client appliances, Neoware will be demonstrating the latest in thin client, server-based computing: Neoware Voyager and ThinPATH PC. Neoware Voyager, featured in the November 19, 2002 issue of PC Magazine, is a wireless thin client tablet that provides all the benefits of server-based computing. Equipped with industry-standard Microsoft Windows CE operating system, large memory capacity and a long battery life, the Voyager further frees users from the limitations of physical connections. ThinPATH PC, a cutting edge thin client software solution, reduces the cost of using PC desktops by configuring and managing PCs as thin clients. It presents an ideal tool for companies looking to transition from PCs to thin client appliances, providing dependable, cost-effective solution with minimal impact on existing corporate infrastructure.
Neoware's thin client appliances and solutions are cost-effective alternatives to personal computers used by businesses and are powerful replacements for green-screen terminals. Used in conjunction with Citrix MetaFrame(R) or Microsoft(R) Terminal Services, Neoware's Eon, Capio, and Voyager appliances allow users to run virtually any application from a server, plus connect to mainframes, midrange systems, and the Internet. Unlike traditional PCs, Neoware's thin client appliances can be centrally managed and remotely configured using ezRemote Manager software, which greatly simplifies and lowers the cost of desktop administration. Because of this, Neoware can save customers up to 60% 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.
"iForum is the perfect venue to help IT professionals understand the benefits and find the right solutions for a server-based computing environment," stated Howie Hunger, Neoware's Executive Vice President of Worldwide Marketing and Business Development. "Neoware's thin client appliances are a natural fit in Citrix environments and we are excited to demonstrate not only our traditional flagship products, but introduce cutting-edge products such as Neoware Voyager and ThinPATH PC."
