Hi ALl,
am kind new to View ,
i want to know
what the difference between Thin and Zero Client
are all Thin/Zero Client support RDP or just specific type
Thanks
Correct - All variants of zero clients (including ZC displays) with the TERA processor include an ASIC implementation of RDP in addition to PCoIP protocol support. Most zero client users select PCoIP due to improved performance, especially graphics. You can find out more about zero clients at the Teradici FAQ: http://www.teradici.com/pcoip/pcoip-technology/pcoip-faqs.php
Thin clients certified by the VMware Ready program include software variants of PCoIP and RDP clients installed on an OS. You can find compatible devices here: http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php?action=base&deviceCategory=vdm
From my understanding a thin client will have some type of OS such as XPe on it so that the user can start the RDP/PCOIP connection while a zero client does not have any OS on it at all. I would think that most thin clients on the market would support RDP.

so why thin or zero
what adv of zero over thin or thin over zero
all zero support RDP

The advantage of a zero client is that there is no local is to manage. With a thin client running something lime XPe you have to worry about patches

There's still a lot of complaints out there that zero clients aren't really zero clients since you still have to manage the firmware. Basically, you're just pushing your patching to a lower level.
