“GraphOn…introduced a new native Linux client for its
Bridges(TM) software that will provide remote access to 32-bit
Windows(R) applications from any Linux display device or PC over
the Internet, dial-up or network connection. The Linux client for
GraphOn Bridges is the latest to be added to GraphOn’s thin,
server-based software, which includes Java and Windows clients. The
new Linux client runs Windows applications remotely with
native-like performance.”

“GraphOn Bridges provides independent software vendors (ISVs)
and enterprise users a cost-effective solution for deploying thin,
server-based Linux, UNIX and Windows applications to display
devices such as PCs. Licenses for Windows Terminal Server, an
Internet Connector and Citrix Metaframe are not needed to deliver
32-bit Windows applications to Linux, Java or Windows clients,
since the software does not require the Windows NT kernel.”

“To be successful, Linux must proliferate on the desktop as well
as the server,” says GraphOn Executive Vice President, Robin Ford.
We believe the market’s adoption of Linux will accelerate
significantly when desktop Linux can easily access server-based
Windows applications.
