According to a recent Wall Street Journal
article, the trend towards thin client technology over high operating
cost personal desktop computers is on the rise. Lower maintenance
fees and better
security benefits are substantial drivers in the movement.
 Application
servers offer improved security because all data is housed on the
server, not the individual laptop or PC. If a personal computer
needs to be rebuilt or is damaged, the information on that computer
has
a much higher risk of loss than if that
same
information was stored on the central server.
