“Netier Technologies will preview its new Linux thin-client
operating system at COMDEX/Fall ’99 November 15-19 in Las Vegas,
Nevada in booth L3577.”

Netier’s new embedded Linux-powered NetXpress(TM) thin
clients enable traditional server-based functionality via Citrix
ICA(R) protocol in conjunction with Citrix MetaFrame(TM) and
WinFrame(R) server-based computing software.
Netier’s Linux
operating system also offers an RDP(TM) Client to enable an RDP
connection to servers running Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Server,
Terminal Server Edition.”

“The new Linux thin-client operating system was developed based
on feedback from Netier customers, a portion of whom operate in
native UNIX or Linux environments. Embedded Linux in NetXpress thin
clients enables Netier customers to retain the characteristics of
their “X-based” computing environments while also taking advantage
of Windows(R) and other applications via Citrix MetaFrame and
WinFrame.”
