San Jose-based Wyse Technology Inc, now owned by Taiwanese interests, is getting out of the systems business and will devote all its resources to its original core business, display terminals. Its offerings will comprise general purpose terminals, X-terminals and monitors. Although suspending – which in this context means killing – development of its system divisions’ client and server products, it will continue to provide service for its full line of products, honour all warranties and provide service contracts on these products. The contraction will cost 126 people their jobs worldwide, 7% of the workforce, but Wyse hopes to build its display terminals business by creating a Strategic Business Development Center to identifying and pick future technologies to complement the company’s display products.
