Cranberry, a provider of hardware and software solutions for server-based computing and application virtualization markets, has come up with a brilliant innovation, a computer that is the most energy-efficient alternative to a desktop PC having a large applicability in private and public sector organizations where it can reduce the carbon footprint of the existent computers with up to 95%.

At the moment, the existing computers have an average power consumption of 175 watts, while the SC20 client is consuming just 9 watts and it also 19 times more efficient because of the management software it is coming with which helps in reducing power consumption by turning off unused devices automatically.



A study conducted by Smart Client showed that using the right computer equipment offsets carbon dioxide emissions equivalent to a 2.5 hour business flight every year, and Smart Client 20 solves this problem.
It is known that a standard PC in an office if it is used about 9 hours per day, 5 days a week and 48 weeks a year, it totalizes 176Kg of carbon dioxide per year. On the other hand, the Smart Client 20 produces just 9Kg which means a reduction of 95%.

What this small computer can do as a client is performing the business functions like Internet browsing offering easy management and security features being immune to viruses and spyware programs because it can load a fresh copy of the operating system every time it starts.
It is powered by an ultra-efficient CPU which leads to less than 10% power consumption compared with a normal PC.



Smart Client 20 can also use the patented FreshbootTM technology and prevent unauthorized changes to the applications and operating system.
It is available at a starting price of $680 in UK through CDG distribution partner.
