History of Microsoft Windows - Windows Thin PC

Windows Thin PC

In 2011, Microsoft introduced Windows Thin PC or WinTPC, which is a feature- and size-reduced locked-down version of Windows 7 expressly designed to turn older PCs into thin clients. WinTPC is available for software assurance customers and relies on cloud computing in a business network. Wireless operation is supported since WinTPC has full wireless stack integration, but wireless operation may not be as good as the operation on a wired connection.

Famous quotes containing the words windows and/or thin:

    —and then it was
    There interposed a Fly—

    With Blue—uncertain stumbling Buzz—
    Between the light—and me—
    And then the Windows failed—and then
    I could not see to see—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    Lodgepole
    coneseed waits for fire
    And then thin forests of silver-grey.
    in the void
    a pine cone falls
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
