Today's PCs are so powerful that the vast majority of applications only use a small fraction of the computer's capacity. NComputing's virtualization software and hardware tap this unused capacity so that it can be simultaneously shared by many users. Each user connects to the shared PC through a small NComputing access device. The access device has no CPU, memory, or moving parts—so it is rugged, durable, and easy to deploy and maintain.
