FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 27, 1998--Citrix Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CTXS) today demonstrated the first thin-client/server system implementing Intel's Lean Client Guidelines at CA World '98 in New Orleans, La. Intel (Booth #1547) and Computer Associates (Booth #92) are both displaying Intel standard high volume (SHV) servers and Lean Clients accessing CA's Unicenter TNG enterprise management application running on Citrix's WinFrame(R) thin-client/server software and upcoming MetaFrame(tm) (formerly known as the "pICAsso" Project) software. "Citrix is pleased to demonstrate a thin-client/server system supporting Intel's Lean Client Guidelines," said Mark Templeton, Citrix President. "Over the years, Citrix has been singularly focused on providing customers the best thin-client/server solutions to more efficiently deploy and manage business applications. We look forward to working with Intel to provide enterprises a combined, end-to-end solution that will yield bottom-line application TCO benefits." "Citrix is a key player in the thin client market segment, and Intel is pleased to have their WinFrame and MetaFrame products running effectively on Intel Architecture-based servers as well as clients based on the Intel Architecture Lean Client Guidelines," said Ron Peck, director of marketing for Intel's Business Platforms Group. "Lean Clients combined with Citrix software will help provide a greater range of desktop computing performance across corporate networks." With an installed base of over 50,000 servers, Citrix thin-client/server software provides efficient use of all the server platform characteristics needed for a server-centric computing environment, such as reliability, scaleability, large memory capacities and remote manageability - all found in standard high-volume servers based on the Intel Architecture. Citrix is continuing to optimize its MetaFrame and WinFrame thin-client/server system software for Intel Architecture. Intel Architecture-based Lean Clients and servers establish a common, high-performance architecture for both 'ends of the wire.'
