Neoware introduced the new m100 thin client notebook with no hard drive.
The files and applications will be stored on the server. The Neoware m100 notebook is essential for organizations that require data privacy, including healthcare organizations. Expect silent operation from the device as it has no moving parts like hard drive or fan. This also boosts the battery life to six hours, said Mobilewhack.

The Citrix infrastructure is used for the unit and gives real-time access to information for mobile workers. With a 15" screen, USB, integrated Wi-Fi and Ethernet, you can access data stored on the server using a variety of means.

As for the OS, the Neoware m100 notebook supports Windows XPe and Linux. Priced at US $759 (with Linux) and US $799 (with Windows XPe), the Windows version will start shipping in October 2006, and the Linux version will start shortly after that.
