Oooh! That's dangerously close to our favorite entrepreneur, Kenzig.
Maybe Jim bought Bosanova?

Bosanova is now 10Zig.  One of the stranger name changes I have seen.
DevonIT looks to be in pretty deep with Dell.

We just added a Dell FX170 running win xp embedded to our domain with
the plans to test it out with an end-user.  It's just a rebranded devon
IT box (I think they used to be bosanova) but it seems decent for a more
basic/average user.  Does dual monitors and the xp embedded seems to
work well as an "os"

 

 

One thing I liked in the documentation was the ability to re-image the
device by plugging in a usb drive...

 

I will admit though that I've spent less than an hour on/with the
device, so not exactly an expert.

in the past, we would get on this topic every few months.  But it seems
like it has been a while since we had a discussion on who makes the best
thin clients.  With that, who has the best thin client management
software.

The landscape has changed with HP swallowing up Neoware, Bosanova
chaging names, Lenovo, Dell, and even Cisco are getting in the game too.
And probably a few I forget or dont' even know about.

For what it is worth, even after 10 years I still hate Wyse.  I even won
a notebook form them at Synergy and they never bothered to send it and
ignored my emails.  jerks.  sorry and no i'm not bitter about it or
anything.

 

So, with that...

 

Who makes the best thin clients and who makes the best thin client
management software?
