Devon IT Announces New DIT 6040A Thin Client Terminal Starting At $139

Wednesday, 14 February 2007 by Michel Roth

Well, I have to say that's starting to sound good to me: a $139 Thin Client. That would make for about �100 per unit if y buy them in bulk. Unfortunately my gut and past experiences warn me not to be to enthusiastic about these kind of clients. Don't get me wrong: i have never seen or touched the 6040A but I'm afraid it just won't deliver. But then again, perhaps it's the best Thin Client you've ever seen. Bottom line: don't just look at the price but also see if the Thin Client "fits" your environment.
