"Neoware is pleased to sponsor the Citrix Solutions Summit and showcase our latest Capio products," stated Michael Kantrowitz, president and CEO of Neoware Systems. "The new Capio models offer a fast, easy, affordable thin client solution to the Citrix community, and represent the best way for customers to run virtually any Windows, web, UNIX or mainframe application at the lowest total cost."
