Virtualisation kit lets you share PCs
Virtualisation kit lets you share PCs
April 21, 2009:NComputing has introduced a low-cost kit to turn one PC into four virtual desktops.
Built to accommodate popular slim-line PCs, the X350 kit ($A475) is a lower-cost, low-profile version of the NComputing X550, which supports up to 11 users on a full-sized PC.
With a second X350 kit, a total of seven users can share a single PC.
NComputing enables a single PC to be virtualised so that many users can tap the unused capacity and share it as if each person had their own computer. Each user enjoys a full PC experience by connecting their own monitor, keyboard and mouse to an NComputing device, which is then connected to the shared PC. Each X350 kit contains three NComputingXD2 devices and a low-profile PCI card that fits inside space-saving computers.
