LONDON, December 4 /PRNewswire/ --

Nebulas Solutions Group is launching a sexy silver cube which will revolutionise the traditional desktop PC.
The Pano Virtual Desktop device is a zero client, designed specifically to replace traditional PCs with a cost effective, green and highly secure virtual desktop. As such, the unit itself has no memory, operating system, drivers or moving parts. Instead, the shiny silver cube connects keyboard, mouse, display, audio and USB peripherals over an existing IP network to a virtualised server.
In addition to its stylish appearance, the 12 cubic inch Pano brings tangible benefits to companies looking for a cost-effective alternative to the traditional PC. By moving software from the desktop to the server, Nebulas Solutions estimates that the total cost of ownership could be up to 70% less than a traditional PC over three years. As the device consumes only 3% of the power needed by a desktop computer; it is a far more energy efficient alternative.
Nebulas Solutions' managing director, Nick Garlick sees the Pano as the future of desktop computing.
He commented: The Pano and virtualisation technology will revolutionise the desktop. Given the overwhelming advantages in terms of power, cost and management savings, it's difficult to see why organisations wouldn't want to implement it. We're looking forward to launching Pano in the UK; it further strengthens our expanding virtualisation business and should see us making significant inroads into the burgeoning virtual desktop market.
As the Pano relies entirely on a virtualised server infrastructure, it is stable, consistent and secure. It can be managed easily from a central point, whether than be an in-house IT team, national data centre or remotely from anywhere in the world. As such, desktops can be upgraded and installed centrally, eliminating the cost of physically visiting desktops and enabling IT teams to focus on more strategic activities.
With no embedded software, the device offers real security benefits: IT departments can create directory-level policy on who can access which applications and data, install new applications and can download data onto removable media. Additionally, if the Pano cube is stolen, the security risk to the wider organisation is minimal, because the device holds no local data, applications or files.
The Silver Cube has already achieved considerable success in the US, being recognised as Best of the Best in the prestigious Red Dot Product Design awards and being a finalist in Red Herring magazine's Top 100 Most Promising Companies Driving the Future of Technology.
Nick Garlick added: As well as a revolutionary product, the Pano has the wow factor that makes everyone want one when they see it! Initially, I'm sure that customers will be attracted by its appearance, but as they learn more and appreciate its technology, I'm confident that will have even greater appeal. The Pano also fits very well into our business strategy; we partner with innovative technology companies and in Pano Logic, we've certainly found a like-minded organisation.
Commenting on its European expansion, Benjamin Baer, the company's VP of Marketing said: Nebulas expands our reach in the UK, and will help bring our complete VDI solution to organisations looking for ways to leverage their existing virtualisation infrastructure. We look forward to partnering with them, and helping promote Pano's benefits to end-users looking for a viable, more cost-effective alternative to the traditional PC.
