The Eon Professional 4300 is the first model in Neoware's Eon Professional Series and is targeted primarily as a next-generation product for IBM NetVista 2800 and N70 thin client customers.
The Eon Professional 4300 runs NeoLinux, an appliance version of the industry standard Red Hat Linux operating system that enables customers to add Linux applications locally for a variety of vertical markets. The Eon Professional Series is targeted primarily at IBM NetVista 2800 and N70 thin client users who are seeking next-generation products that are compatible with their installed base of IBM thin clients.
