Choosing the Right Thin Clients for Your System I (iSeries) | 2009-01-01 | BOSaNOVA |
| In the beginning, thin-client terminals booted from a server, had very slow CPUs with small amounts of memory, and relied on application servers to provide needed features. It is no surprise that these early thin clients didn't take off because delivery was poor (high bandwidth requirements, low color support, no sound, etc.) and the application servers themselves didn't support applications very well. Over the last few years, the story has changed. Thin clients have been enhanced to support faster CPUs, faster video, and increased and faster memory. Today, popular software applications typically work well in a terminal server environment, application server software has improved significantly, and server hardware prices have plummeted. All of these factors have contributed to the surge in demand for thin clients.

Thin Client Performance | 2009-01-01 | BOSaNOVA |
| Ever since Thin Clients were conceived the message has always been that unlike PC's the CPU on the Thin Client is unimportant. The concept this comes from is that the Server is doing most of the work and therefore the horsepower needs to be there. The Thin Client in this case is merely animating the screen content and sending the keyboard and mouse data to the Server. What they have seen however is that there are many instances where the performance of the Thin Client does make a big difference to the end user experience even when using Terminal Server or Citrix. BOSaNOVA is one of the very few companies who terminate the 5250 session before powering down the Thin Client.

USB for Thin Clients | 2009-01-01 | FabulaTech |
| Usually USB devices connected to a Thin Client can be used in a local session only. If a device were accessible from remote session, it would give a range of unbelievable advantages and would open new boundless opportunities. Unfortunately there is no standard way to accomplish it. A local device cannot be redirected to a remote session. FabulaTech offers a completely optimal better solution for Thin Clients which allows using local USB devices in a remote session. With USB for Remote Desktop one can easily overcome any challenges. The program has been tenderly developed to access local USB devices in remote session (RDP or Citrix ICA).
