2X And Sedicom Join Forces
Thursday, 03 January 2008 by Michel Roth
It's been quiet around 2X for some time now but there is some news from the company. They have joined forces with Sedicom, a large European distributor of SBC hardware and software. In this particular pact, 2x will be delivering the software, 2X ThinClient Server, and Sedicom will provide the hardware, NEX Terminal thin clients.

How does it work Well, "2X ThinClientServer deploys a small footprint Linux-based OS to the NEX thin client devices and to old or new PCs. NEX Terminal thin clients always boot the latest version of the 2X OS from the ThinClientServer. Hardware & connection settings (including resolution, logging and more) are retrieved from the server when the client logs on, making Sedicom’s NEX Terminal thin clients easy to manage and deploy."

Sounds to me that this is nothing that 2x can not do to any other device capable of PXE booting. So this must just be some kind of a package deal only, with no added technical value from the cooperation?

You be the judge. Check out the press release.
