Thin Desktop® 2.2 Turns a Business PC into a Thin Client Device

Press Release: ThinLaunch Software® Announces the Immediate Availability of Thin Desktop® 2.2

Thin Desktop Enhances Virtual Desktop deployment at the business PC and is easier to manage and deploy than traditional registry or policy changes.

(St. Paul, MN) ThinLaunch Software, LLC (www.thinlaunch.com) announces the immediate availability of Thin Desktop 2.2., based on the original Thin Desktop 1.1 product. Thin Desktop 2.2 enhances deployment capability within existing Enterprise Infrastructure.

Thin Desktop enhances the overall value of virtualization by simplifying the deployment of virtual desktops. Thin Desktop turns an existing business PC running a MS OS into a PC based Thin Client device. The Thin Desktop application / utility locks down a PC to a single use or executable. Compared to registry hacks or group policy methods, the application is far easier to implement, deploy and maintain. In addition, unlike the implementation of a Thin Clint infrastructure, the existing enterprise infrastructure requires no changes and no server footprint is required.

When a PC is locked down using Thin Desktop, the typical user interface is hidden from the user, while the underlying PC capabilities remain intact. No changes to the enterprise infrastructure are required and no additional tools or management functionality are needed.

The release of version 2.2 enhances the deployment of Thin Desktop using industry standard methods and architectures. An administrator can now deploy and implement Thin Desktop on any PC in the Enterprise via standard unattended silent install capability or existing enterprise software distribution methods.

“Thin Desktop 2.2 knocks down the barriers to adoption of the virtual desktop. By quickly and easily re-deploying existing PC assets - with no changes to the existing infrastructure. Thin Desktop gives administrators a simple yet efficient way to adopt any of the virtual desktop technologies.”, said ThinLaunch Software General Manager, Mike Cardinal. Cardinal went on to point out that “The PC remains the most prevalent client device in use by businesses worldwide. Thin Desktop helps alleviate the most frustrating problems associated with putting the functionality of a PC in the hands of users.”
