Standard Thin Client Features
The HP Compaq t5000 thin clients are terminals that connect over a
network to a server running Microsoft Windows 2000 or Windows
NT Terminal Server Edition or either of these operating systems with
Citrix MetaFrame software running atop the server operating system.
HP has partnered with Altiris to manage HP Compaq thin clients.
Altiris Deployment Solution is a leading-edge tool to help with quick
deployment and for on-going management of the thin clients in your
organization. Each HP Compaq thin client is recognized by Altiris
Deployment Solution as a supported device. As a result, customers
need not track license compliancy for each device. For additional
information about the Altiris Deployment Solution tool, refer to the
Altiris Deployment Solution insert that shipped with the thin client
and the Deployment Solution User Guide that is available at:
www.altiris.com/documentation.
The next sections describe the features of the thin client. For a
complete list of the hardware and software installed on a specific
model, visit http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/thinclients/
index.html and search for a specific thin client model.
The following features are common to all HP thin clients:
■no moving parts
■no hard drives or diskette drives (optional MultiBay hard drive
and diskette drive available for select models)
■15-minute setup time
■while software support is limited to 90 days from date of
purchase, free periodic firmware upgrades during the product's
warranty period help to protect your IT investment
