Thin client provider VXL Instruments has launched a new virtualisation-ready Itona TC 1330 that includes Linux virtual desktops on the Sylph-OS operating system.
Frank Noon, VP of sales at VXL Instruments, said: “The full function Itona TC1330 is 15-20% cheaper than the competition without any compromise on specifications, performance or build. And it comes with VMware View 3.1 pre-loaded to provide an instant virtualisation solution.”
According to VXL Instruments, the new entry-level desktop thin client is 7.5-inches (19cm) high, and features a fanless design for low power consumption. It boasts ultra green and high security credentials.
In addition, the new Itona TC1330 includes VMware View 3.1 client and allows for remote management via XLmanage and Workgroup edition. It comes with a three-year warranty.
Noon added: “This is the year when thin client, driven by recession, improved specifications, lower pricing and a growing demand from corporates for thin client solutions – and virtualisation – continues its breakthrough.”
