Here is why a potential client ticked me off about my thin clients.

I need to vent. I hope you don't mind.

I got so angry at this person that I was
talking to last week that it is still bothering
me.

This fellow told me that he would never
(don't you love that word--never) be able
to use any type of thin client terminal in
his operation because they just do not
have enough peripheral ports on them to
support all of his devices. He also said that
he needs dual monitors on his PC.

I tried to explain to him that thin client
technology, over the past few years, has
changed drastically and that I would like
to show him some of the new technology. He
said “no” and just would not open up to me
at all. So, I just walked away and shook my
head and tried to calm down.

Just for informational purposes, please
click here and go to page two to see what I
was going to show him. It may even make
me feel better.

I guess I am just too passionate about my
industry and the use of thin client terminals to
replace PCs. I really should not get my blood
pressure up over this type of thing. But, I was
just so frustrated because I knew that I had a
solution for him that could possibly help save
his company thousands of dollars each year on
support costs alone. He just was not interested.
Oh well, as they say, you win some and you
lose some.

Again, if you would like to see a picture and view
some information on this new product, manufactured
by the same company that installed over 7,000
thin clients at one of the largest rental car locations,
