Thin Clients & PCs: Is There Room for Both?
It is time to set the record straight and defuse the myth that in order for an organization to adopt a thin client computing environment it must do away with PCs.
The truth is that there is room for both platforms to coexist in harmony in the same organization. Depending on the company, and depending on the work function, a cooperative thin client/PC approach may make sense from a cost, service, security and productivity standpoint. There are benefits to having both up and running.
