Cost is still the biggest concern today, even when the market we know has just begun to gain some momentum. Considering which, as a priority, LG intends to do more with little, in a very cost effective way. The electronics company is slated to introduce SmartVine N-series flat-screen LCD monitors that will double as virtual computers for multiple users. Courtesy the new virtualization technology (one computer working as many machines) from NComputing, the monitor allows the users to connect mouse and keyboard to it and thereby it morphs itself into a standard PC, which can be used by 11 users simultaneously. A great virtual desktop technology for everyday computing at a total cost of roughly $3,000. Targeted mainly for the education and service sector, LG will begin shipping with a 19-inch SmartVine N-series monitor. Are we ready enough to share a standard PC with a number of users? Thoughts?
