Neoware Partners with Citrix Systems to Sponsor iForum 2001


KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Oct. 10, 2001 (PRIMEZONE) -- Neoware Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:NWRE), the leading supplier of award-winning software and solutions for the Appliance Computing market, will demonstrate its Capio and Eon thin client appliances in booth No. 18 at Citrix iForum 2001, being held Monday through Thursday, October 29 to November 1, 2001 at the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resort in Orlando, Florida.

The conference is designed to show Citrix end-users and prospects the necessary tools and knowledge to improve productivity and streamline information management. Users will learn how to optimize business processes, get flexible solutions for delivering applications and information to their organizations, and see the latest Citrix products.

Neoware's Eon and Capio thin client appliances are cost-effective alternatives to personal computers used by businesses, and are powerful replacements for green-screen terminals. Used in conjunction with Citrix MetaFrame or Microsoft Terminal Services, Neoware's Eon and Capio appliances allow users to run virtually any application from a server, plus connect to mainframes, midrange systems, and the Internet. Unlike personal computers, Neoware's thin client appliances can be centrally managed and remotely configured, which greatly simplifies and lowers the cost of desktop administration. Because of this, Eon and Capio can save customers up to 80% of the total cost of ownership of personal computers, resulting in significant cost savings for enterprise customers and a return on up-front investment within the first year of ownership.

"Neoware is pleased to sponsor Citrix iForum and demonstrate the capabilities and latest enhancements in our Capio and Eon product lines," stated Michael Kantrowitz, president and CEO of Neoware Systems. "iForum draws an audience of highly targeted Citrix users, allowing us to promote Neoware's innovative computing appliance solutions to help them get the most from Citrix MetaFrame."
