22 22 Sun Ray Thin Clients Average life – 15 years Power – 15 watts, 24 includes servers Heat ~80BTUs Noise – Zero dbs Users per CPU – 25:1, Soon 500:1 No viruses, no data loss Versus Typical Industry PC Average life – 3 years Power: 200–250watts Heat and Noise ~850 BTUs, ~5dbs Viruses, spyware, data loss 94% of users have power maintenance disabled on their PC (EPA estimates) 315M PCs currently waiting disposal The Virtual Display Client... with Zero Administration

23 23 Fat versus Thin

24 SunRay Thin Clients Desktop runs on shared server > Gets PC out of the office > 10:1 – 50:1 SunRay to server ratio > No client upgrades! Operational carbon savings Potential for huge carbon savings by avoiding the PC upgrade cycle and associated manufacturing impact SunRay 2 ● 4 watts ● Windows, Linux or Solaris desktop ● Standard monitor, keyboard, mouse
