FEATURES- Xtenda X300 PCI
Cost effective way to add up to 6 more users, no maintenance
required, secure and fast!
The Xtenda X300 consists of an X300 PCI card and Xtenda Multi Box.
The Xtenda PCI card is built around NComputing's proprietary multi-
user computing technology for sharing one PC with up to 7 users.
The Xtenda PCI Card has three RJ45 ports with each linking to that
of an individual Multi Box via a LAN cable. This connection also
provides power transmission meaning one less cable dedicated to
power. You can install up to two Xtenda PCI Cards into a single
computer, enabling the computer to have maximum of 7 total users.
Cost effective way to add more users up to 7 users
The Xtenda X300 gives any office or home user the opportunity to expand
an existing Host PC easily and affordably. (Each Xtenda PCI Card
provides 3 user ports. With two Xtenda PCI Cards per PC can allow seven
operational users including the Host PC.)
Hassle-free Maintenance
Since there is no CPU, Memory or HDD, no additional hardware or software
maintenance would be required. The host PC is the only device that
requires additional maintenance.
Simultaneous Windows and Linux operation
Both the Host PC and the Xtenda Multi Boxes can run independently of
each other and execute the same applications separatly.
Compatibility
The Xtenda X300 will run most Windows and Linux based applications with
virtually zero compatibility issues; full-screen streaming, internet
browing, email, office suites and much more.
Supports monitors and displays
800 x 600 (75Hz)/1024 x 768 (60Hz) 16-bit color (65,536 colors).

environment using image caching and other exciting technologies.

Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2008-06-30  
Great product but can be better
Great product but can be better
For me the idea is perfect because most new computers have a lot of power and many people can be working in the same computer almost if each of them has the power of the computer for each one. The performance is great and the save of money better. I put the system in a computer with an Intel quad core, 2 GB RAM and 80 GB HDD, and all the users are surprised with the speed. But the thinks that have to be better are:
1. We can not use skype because there is no jack for the microphone.
2. We need to move to the computer to put a USB device.
3. Max resolution for monitor is 1024x768, and Google-earth is too slow.
4. The initial installation was very hard, it take me a lot of time for some problems
5. The support is too bad.

Worked well for in-house classes
We needed to provide computers for 4 in-house class. We didn't have them available but we did have a 3gh Dell with 3gb of ram. It did require me to take 3 runs at installation of the software to get it installed and functioning. Also the software didn't set the Multi-User service to automatic and I had to manually change the service. Afterwords however we had 7 people running one computer without problems. Everyone on one computer made it easier to setup the class material also.
PS: Read the requirements - not Vista supported although they claim it will be supported. Didn't affect me. | | Reviewed on 2007-07-23

Easy to Setup
The xtenda x300 is easy to setup and configure. It works simply with os. Just wished it would allow users to be in other locations on the network rather than just 16 feet away. Recommend using at home and at the office. | | Reviewed on 2007-06-26
close, but needs some help still
I bought this for our office. It seemed like a great way to avoid having to buy new computers for the other 2 people that work with me. Our first problem is that the cable that connects my computer to the boxes can only be 15 feet long. A lot of product descriptions say it can go further, but the instructions in the box say they can't guarantee any performance longer than 15 feet. I assumed that meant if we were doing some kind of video gaming, which we don't do in the office, but it actually applies to just having the screen show up. The three of us can just sit there and do absolutely nothing and the monitors connected to the boxes will flash on and off at random, they also have wavy lines that move up and down the screens. I called tech support and found out that they only support screens up to 17 inches. And not the nicer flat screens, only the old box monitors. I didn't know you could even buy a 17 inch old monitor like that anymore. It seems ridiculous that they can't support any monitor made in the last 5 years. There was also an issue with the keyboard and mouse for each of the boxes. the only accept keyboards and mice that have the old PS/2 connection. I can't even find a place that still carries keyboards like that. Everything is USB now and has been for quite a while. This product may be great for schools who only have access to outdated computers and hardware, but for anyone who has bought anything new in the last 5 years, this product won't work with any of it yet. It is a great concept, they just need to catch up with what is on the market today. | |
