Windows CE Thin Client User Manual CHAPTER 1 Introduction This chapter introduces Neoware thin clients running Microsoft Windows CE and describes the scope of this User Manual. What is a Neoware Thin Client? Neoware thin clients are sleek computing devices that contain no hard drive, fan, or other moving parts, making them extremely reliable and completely silent. Thin clients provide access to programs running on network servers. Generally as you work, your thin client sends keystrokes and mouse clicks to the server, which responds with screen updates for your monitor. Most of the processing occurs on the server. Due to the speed of modern computer networks, this exchange happens as fast as, and frequently faster than, processing on a personal computer. The Neoware Software installed in your thin client's local Flash disk memory incorporates the Microsoft® Windows® CE operating system. This enables you to use applications running on Microsoft Windows application servers, UNIX/Linux servers, mainframe computers, and on the Internet/intranet. Your thin client can connect to servers running: • Microsoft Windows Server 2003 • Microsoft Windows 2000 Server (including Advanced Server and Datacenter Server versions) • Microsoft Windows NT 4 Server 1
