What is Thin Computing? IT Industry is buzzing about Green IT, Virtualization both in the Data Centre and on the Desktop, Public / Private Cloud Computing, etc. The ThinDesk / TELUS solution provides all of this and is a Fully Managed Thin Client Desktop and Server Based Computing Service hosted inside a TELUS SAS 70 Data Centre 100% Scalable Utility Model – Priced on a per user / per month basis (opex vs capex) Provide Enterprise Class Service to SMB - 5 to 1000 users

Green “Thin” Computing is Good Business Thin client desktop and laptops use 1/10 th the energy of a typical PC. Thin clients have twice the lifecycle and are ¼ of the size of a PC, so Businesses have a less frequent hardware refresh, therefore producing less waste into landfills. Customers do not have onsite servers which further reduce their carbon footprint. Moving to ThinDesk also involves 100% virtualization of back- end servers. Consolidation ratios of 10 to 1. Gartner named Green IT a top strategic technology for 2008 as companies are looking to improve energy efficiency and reduce their environmental impact

Apples to Apples Typical PC’s have Power supplies of 250-400 watts...If left on 24 hours a day would use 180kw-288 kw of power per month. Typical Thin Client devices range in power consumption from 50-65 watts or 36kw -47 kw per month. This is a power savings of 73-88% power savings These savings do not include the cost of a energy consumption of a company’s servers, server room cooling, battery backups networking equipment and space air conditioning.

PC vs. Thin Client 90 percent less energy used each year 131,810 fewer Kw/H used each year $11,784 (U.S.) saved in energy costs per-year 102 fewer tons of CO2 put into the environment each year 27 fewer tons of e-waste after six years of use Substantially less air conditioning needed Less "noise" pollution in user areas
