Phoenix, Arizona,
August 10, 2004 - Martin
Pladgeman, president of BOSaNOVA Inc., said the company
has begun shipping its new 122-key, 5250-terminal style
PC keyboard in black.
"We
have been asked many times by customers to provide black
Thin Clients with black keyboards," Pladgeman said.
"The market moved some time ago to using black
as the standard color for office equipment. Our LTC
600 was one of the first black Thin Clients available,
but black 122-key keyboards were not available until
now."
By
the end of the summer, the entire BOSÂNOVA Thin
Client line will be black.
The
122-key driverless PC keyboards can be used with PC
5250 applications such as IBM Client Access, Rumba and
any other 5250 applications where the keyboard can be
re-mapped.
"The
operating system of the PC has no effect on our keyboard,
so there is no need to purchase expensive and problematic
drivers," Pladgeman said. "We don't care if
the user has DOS, Unix, Linux, Windows 3x, 9x, ME, 2000
or XP. Our keyboard will work perfectly with them all!"
The
main benefit of using the 122-key, 5250 terminal-style
PC keyboard is the elimination of the learning curve
for terminal users moving to a Thin Client/PC environment.
Users who make use of the upper row of function keys
love this keyboard. Keys like "Play" and "Record"
can be used just like the 5250 Terminal environment.
