Lol not everyone is a developer.
This offering makes perfect sense to replace those dumb dell machines equipped with 4gb ram and a core i3 with even dumber machine and slash the local it team.
Think of thin clients, all over again.
Think of call centers.
Think of receptionists, or bank clerks that all they do is use internal web-based software, and print a pdf file.
No more hardware maintenance, just throw away the whole thing (the dumb terminal) and replace it with a new one, we'll send it in for repair later.
- AlphaSite 5y agoYou still need something to run the thing client, thin client doesn’t mean no client. So where does it run?
- twobitshifter 5y agoI’ve seen organizations that just run Intel nucs.
- znpy 5y agoAnything really, even a raspberry pi could do. Heck, you could even netboot the raspberry pi and save on SD cards too.
