whitepaper Reliable Technology and Low TCO at Hudson Park2007-02-09 15:38:36 Hewlett-Packard
  Increasingly, ICT is occupying a central role in education. The school had frequent problems in the past with unreliable technology. As use of IT increased, so the need to solve these problems became more urgent. The first steps towards a solution were taken when Hudson Park, acting on the recommendation of another local school, purchased its first HP ProLiant server. The reliability of this product impressed the school so much that over the following six years, it replaced its existing servers, desktop systems, laptops, printers, scanners and projectors with HP products. All three Labs have thin clients using HP Servers. Hudson Park started to use Web JetAdmin to manage its printers centrally, and it also plans to implement HP OpenView.   
whitepaper Dexia Bank Invests in HP BladeSystem and Thin Client Technologies to Build "Branch of Tomorrow"2007-02-13 17:25:33 Hewlett-Packard
  Dexia Bank's old system was not meeting business needs. Each branch bank had one Dell server, along with PCs on desktops. Because the primary applications were running under UNIX on IBM computers in the data center, the "Heavy" branch office servers were underutilized. At the same time, operating and supporting them was complex and costly. With the Branch of Tomorrow project, Dexia consolidated its legacy client/server architecture into a centralized architecture based on 300 HP BladeSystem servers in the bank's data center and 6000 HP Thin Clients in its branches. The solution also incorporates Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server software 3.0, which provides local and remote users with secure access to virtualized client/server applications from any location, device, or connection.

whitepaper Introduction2006-12-18 O'Reilly Media
  For many computer enthusiasts, the phrase small form factor brings to mind cube-shaped systems about the same size as a stack of books. If one visits a site such as www.sfftech.com, one will see many such systems. These days they generally have a Pentium 4 or Athlon processor; a couple of hard drive bays; one or two PCI expansion slots; built-in audio, video, Ethernet, USB, FireWire; and more. They make great desktop replacements and are often used as "Media center" PCs. This paper takes the small-form-factor concept a few steps further to include the very wide range of small, general-purpose computer systems now available to individual consumers.   
whitepaper Standard Operating Environment Gives New South Wales Schools a Competitive Edge2006-12-15 01:00:19 Microsoft
  The New South Wales Department of Education and Training provides educational services to 1.2 million students at 2,600 schools and Technical And Further Education (TAFE) colleges across the state. It manages a fleet of around 160,000 desktop PCs that comprises many different models from a variety of vendors. This makes maintaining a Standard Operating Environment (SOE) difficult because the Department needs to build and constantly update more than 100 separate images. The Department ran a proof of concept project using Microsoft Windows Vista on desktop PCs at a selected Sydney high school. This pilot project demonstrated the savings the Department could achieve by slashing the number of SOE images it needed to maintain and reducing the management and support effort required.
