ThinSoft WinConnect VX

Overview

Similar to WinConnect, WinConnect VX is Multi-User. WinConnect VX is a software solution that enables Linux-based PCs and Thin Client devices (such as terminals, Internet/Information Appliances and PDAs) to connect to a Windows®server to run Windows®applications over a network or via the Internet.
