Abstract
As thin client deployments become more common for complex, graphics- intensive applications, the demand for multi-display functionality continues to increase. Not only must thin clients offer flexible solutions for multi-monitor requirements, but they must also provide for good quality performance for high- resolution multimedia applications.
HP commissioned Tolly to evaluate the user experience and feature set of the newly-enhanced HP t5740e in three configurations, comparing those systems to the Wyse Z90S7 and Z90D7 thin client solutions. All systems ran the Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard (WES) 7 SP1 operating system in multi-monitor configurations with playback scenarios of high-definition video in popular formats.
Overall, the HP solutions delivered a user experience comparable to the Wyse solutions. Only the HP solution offers out-of-box support for simultaneous use of 4 monitors. Furthermore, HP supports DisplayPort, VGA and legacy PS2, serial and parallel ports as standard features.
