Fashion Leader A|X Armani Exchange Trims Computing Costs with Wyse Thin Clients in Technology Makeover

Transition from PCs to Thin Clients Reduces Total Cost of Desktop Ownership by 60 Percent

San Jose, CA – 2003/05/13 - Wyse Technology, the domain experts in server-centric computing, is assisting Armani Exchange with the transition from PCs to thin clients, which slimmed its IT management and maintenance costs and reduced its total cost of desktop ownership by 60 percent. As a result, Armani Exchange's deployment of Wyse® ™ 3000-series thin clients has streamlined its ability to maintain and manage its computing resources.

Wyse thin clients ensure critical data and software are stored and maintained on servers that are managed by highly trained IT staff. With reliable, easy-to-use thin clients, Armani Exchange employees can focus on their primary responsibility - their customers - not wrestling with PC-centric problems like faulty hard drives and system crashes.

The server-centric computing model spares Armani Exchange IT staff from having to visit all 46 remote stores to maintain and update desktops, and it even allows them to troubleshoot technical problems from corporate headquarters. All functions, including application updates, service pack installations and virus definition updates are managed centrally - a key part of the management and cost savings that resulted from the Wyse thin-client deployment.

"Armani Exchange's thin client deployment demonstrates the tremendous business advantages our thin clients offer retail businesses," said David Rand, director of corporate marketing for Wyse Technology. "Our products provide more than significant cost savings. They allow retail employees to focus on their job instead of worrying about calling their IT department to solve computer problems. As a result, our products help Armani Exchange's managers and employees maintain their competitive edge - unparalleled customer service."
