2X Enables businesses to use Apple PCs without setting Windows aside

Apple Mac OS X users can now run Windows applications seamlessly on their desktop with 2X ApplicationServer’s Mac Client. The 2X ApplicationServer is available free for up to five connections at: http://www.2x.com/applicationserver/application-publishing.htm

Until now, Apple Macintosh users could only run Windows applications installing local virtualisation software such as VMware, Parallels or Apple’s Boot Camp solution. This type of software typically needs a lot of resources and is difficult to configure. However, with 2X ApplicationServer, any Windows application or desktop can be run via a secure SSL connection from a Microsoft Terminal Server on Mac desktops using any LAN or Internet connection by installing the very light 2X Mac Client.

2X is offering a free five-application licence of 2X ApplicationServer for Windows Terminal Services available at: http://www.2x.com/applicationserver/application-publishing.htm.

Organisations can install applications onto one central server and use 2X ApplicationServer to seamlessly tunnel up to five connections per server onto remote desktops.
