Survey Results
With conversations around end user computing dominated by highly 
desirable mobile technology, it’s easy to overlook the potential of 
thin client hardware. Deployed in the right way to the right types of 
user, however, far from being the compromise option, thin client 
devices can enhance the user’s overall experience. While the majority 
see a role for such technology, legacy perceptions can be an impediment 
to adoption.
The majority have an out of date view of thin client technology
Results of a recent Reg reader survey of 220 IT professionals suggests 
that knowledge of thin client technologies is frequently out of date. 
This is even true in a self-selecting sample that will be biased 
towards those with an interest in the topic (Figure 1).
