2X announced this week the release of 2X ThinClientServer Version 3, which aims to ease Windows desktop management troubles by letting administrators control what Windows apps users can run via a small-footprint, secure Linux desktop.
2X ThinClientServer v3 deploys a Linux thin client with integrated desktop to PCs and thin client devices, which can run any Windows application via RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol). The Windows apps are tunneled to the desktop via 2X ApplicationServer or Citrix Metaframe.
2X ThinClientServer v3 eliminates the need to patch or update software, install anti-virus or anti-spyware software, and back up data on desktop machines, offering significant cost savings while reducing end-user support and enhancing security.
2X ThinClientServer pricing starts at $595 for up to 25 thin clients and ranges to $9,595 for up to 1,000 thin clients. Five thin clients can be downloaded for free from
