NEW ROCHELLE, NY3/26/2003--Symbio Technologies debuted its Linux based, thin 
client network 
solution at the K-12 Technology Showcase held at the Brooklyn Marriott.  Dubbed 
the Symbiont, the 
system promises users a more powerful, secure, and affordable computer 
environment.  Customers 
can use their existing Microsoft and Apple programs and perform all of their 
business operations, while
 eliminating most of the overhead and security issues associated with a 
standard computer network. 

End users see familiar programs on an easy-to-use desktop.  With applications 
loaded on the server 
and accessed using simple workstations, customers save on software licensing 
and support fees, can 
immediately deploy new programs and upgrades to all users simultaneously, and 
can reuse old hardware. 

Symbio Technologies can set up the network in just a few hours and can install 
new workstations at the 
rate of one per minute.  Thirty older machines can be upgraded into powerful 
workstations for the price 
of one new standard PC.

        The Symbiont workstation is:
·       always as powerful as a high end server 
·       free of any software or operating system that needs to be managed
·       less than half the price of an off-the-shelf or mail order computer
·       as small as a textbook
·       free of any breakable, moving parts
·       compatible with portable storage devices
·       completely silent
·       the most secure computing solution available

and has the lowest total cost of ownership compared to any solution in its 
class.  Industry experts such 
as the Gartner Group estimate that a thin client network can save thousands of 
dollars in total cost of ownership (TCO).

        ?The Symbiont is unique in that, unlike other thin client solutions, it 
has no embedded operating 
system,? said Symbio-Technologies? president, Roger Del Russo.  ?That 
translates into secure, incorruptible 
workstations that will never become obsolete.?
