NetVista N2200 Price Reduction

When it comes to thin clients, IBM knows how to make ours even more popular. On August 1, 2000 all available IBM NetVista N2200 Thin Client models in the USA received a nearly 14 percent price reduction. These low-cost, small form factor thin clients do more than fill the gap between yesterday's terminals and today's PCs. They can provide access to all intranet and internet applications, as well as existing Windows and terminal applications -- all at the same time.

And there's more good news. This price reduction adds to the already substantial Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) savings that the IBM NetVista N2200 Thin Clients are generating. GartnerGroup in a March 2000 report indicated a 20 to 35 percent TCO savings over loosely managed PCs. In that same report IBM was the only vendor to receive GartnerGroups' prestigious "Magic Quadrant" recognition. This is the third year in a row that we have taken sole ownership of this achievement.
