The Network Station makes application deployment fast and simple. Because applications are stored on and accessed from servers, you only need to update an application once on the server to update all users who access the application from a Network Station. There's no need to visit individual desktops. The IBM Network Station is a simple device that is centrally managed at the server. This reduces the cost and complexity of end-user support and reduces the likelihood of viruses, unauthorized software and hardware failures at the desktop. It also reduces the time many users spend "fine-tuning" their systems. The Network Station combines the graphical interface and rich application environment of PCs with the low cost, reliability and ease of management of non-programmable terminals. In addition the IBM Network Station not only simply and economically enables users to access today's applications, it also positions them for the future as well because of its hardware independence, industry standards, national language support, Internet emphasis, browser-based interfaces, and ability to handle Java applications and thin client architectures.
