MiniFrame UK wins Environmental Award
Attached is press release which may be interesting given the debate raging over IT being the black sheep of carbon emissions. The SoftExpand solution presents a way to overcome increasing energy costs, and tightened IT budgets too. The solution is similar to NComputing L, but no need for access devices and no problems with the screen resolution and graphics, with load balancing thrown in.
DERBYSHIRE COMPANY TO REPRESENT UK IN EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENT AWARDS
Derbyshire based reseller Kira Supplies Ltd is on track to represent the UK in the European Business Awards for the Environment.
The company has just been notified that it is among the major winners in the Green Apple Environment Awards for their Ultimate Green Desktop solution powered by SoftXpand from MiniFrameUK. This award is one of the few accredited feeder schemes into the international campaign.
They will be presented with their Green Apple Award at the House of Commons later this year, when top winners have the chance to represent their country in the Brussels event.
They will also be invited to join the National Green Heroes, an elite group of environmental achievers who use their experience to help thousands of others – and the environment – around the world. These plaques are presented on board The Royal Yacht Britannia.
The Green Apple Awards are now in their 15th year and attracted more than 500 nominations this year.
They are organised by The Green Organisation, an independent, non-political, non-activist, non-profit environment group dedicated to recognising, rewarding, and promoting environmental best practice around the world.
How does SoftXpand work?
SoftXpand is based on a simple fact: today’s PCs are so powerful that the vast majority of applications use only a small fraction of the computer’s capacity. MiniFrameUK’s Multiseat computing software SoftXpand taps this unused capacity so that it can be simultaneously
shared by multiple users, spreading out the cost of the PC, and providing double the number of seats for the same money.
