Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

IGEL Launches a Virtual Thin Client Evaluation Tool
Provides a no-cost way to evaluate the look-and-feel of the widgetry

Bowing to recession-induced exigencies, IGEL Technology, the third-largest thin client vendor by revenue last year according to IDC, has introduced a virtualized version of its new Linux-based Universal Desktop firmware to give people a no-cost way to evaluate the look-and-feel of the widgetry.

Simon Richards, IGEL's UK general manager, says if customers like what they see with this first evaluation, they can order a free IGEL kit that will let them test the thin client firmware GUI and features without having to purchase the hardware first.

IGEL says the virtualized thin client, which will run in VMplayer on top of a Windows or Linux operating system, includes a full firmware version of its advanced pack except for its Ericom PowerTerm Terminal emulation mojo and can run on a PC or notebook test system.
