M2 PRESSWIRE-28 September 1999-GRAPHON: GraphOn breathes new life into UNIX and Linux applications (C)1994-99 M2 COMMUNICATIONS LTD
GraphOn Corporation has put an end to the dilemma faced by UNIX and Linux users over working in a thin, server-based way. The company's products enable users to access their applications across any connection or network from any device using the thinnest of desktops.
GraphOn Corporation, a specialist in thin, server-based connectivity software for open systems, is providing a truly thin, cost-effective solution to accessing business critical UNIX and Linux applications over a WAN, LAN, dial-up or Internet connection.
Furthermore, the technology also allows remote access from a wide range of devices, opening up legacy applications to enterprise-wide users in a quick and simple way.
GraphOn, already leaders in the US with a growing customer base in Europe, are committed to the predicted growth in UNIX/Linux applications and are opening new offices in Reading, UK to support their European customers.
Robin Ford, Executive Vice President, GraphOn comments, "IT professionals can forget about having to migrate to NT in order to take a thin client approach with UNIX and Linux applications. Bandwidth also is not an issue with our adaptive and efficient RapidX protocol."
Ford continues, "Other vendors' solutions are not really thin, they are just dieting. GraphOn provide the truly thinnest solution to access UNIX and Linux applications."
GraphOn's family of products includes GO-Global - a thin, server-based solution for high performance access to UNIX and Linux from any Windows PC.
Go-Joe - a thin, server-based solution for accessing UNIX and Linux applications from virtually any Java-enabled desktop or device, including Sun's JavaStation, IBM's Network Station, desktops with web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
GO-Between - a thin, server-based solution for accessing UNIX and Linux applications from Microsoft Windows NT, Terminal Server Edition. GO-Between significantly minimises the impact on server resources over traditional "fat" solutions.

I thought the dieting remark was clever.
