About Multi-station Linux


The Linux Desktop Multiplier, powered by Userful, allows up to 10 thick-client user stations to connect to a single SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop computer. User stations consist of only a monitor, USB keyboard and mouse. Support is available for individual USB memory key and audio support.

Multi-station Linux desktops deliver the fastest, easiest and least expensive way to deploy new desktops (or thin clients) in computer labs, classrooms, libraries, retail stores and Internet cafés. By effectively eliminating up to 9 out of every 10 physical PCs, organisations can reduce their desktop hardware, maintenance, infrastructure and electricity costs by 60 to 80%.
