What I/S organizations need is a new approach - one that leverages the best aspects of existing remote computing technologies while offering new capabilities to address the performance, management and cost obstacles encountered in deploying business-critical applications on an enterprisewide scale.

Thin-client/server computing is an evolutionary, not a revolutionary, solution for remote computing that reduces costs, increases management and improves application performance for organizations seeking to implement enterprise-wide remote computing.
