[SunRay-Users] Sun Ray WAN article

[Paul Matthews]

Hi,
In order to address some of the badwidth issues that often crop up I 
wonder if Sun would be better off using the impressive compression 
technology employed by NoMachine NX (http://www.nomachine.com). I use 
their VNC style product often to have full screen remote X display over 
a 56k dial-up link. NX frequently promote their product as a thin client 
solution and have collaborative links with Xandros. A similar link with 
Sun would seem like a good fast track to promoting this in the WAN market
