“We’ve… broadened the availability of Windows-based
applications to desktop users of Linux and SCO UNIX in the most
transparent manner possible.”

“MetaFrame 1.8 includes new ICA clients for Linux and SCO UNIX
desktopusers, including Red Hat, Caldera, SuSE, Slackware, UnixWare
and OpenServer. As a result, users of heterogeneous computing
platforms gain broadened information access to Windows-based
applications, without special emulation software, application
rewrites or additional hardware purchases. MetaFrame enables IT
professionals to go through full depreciation cycles with current
computing investments, while capitalizing on the strategic benefits
of Windows-based applications.”
