airpc turns computing on its head. It does away with the status quo, the hassles, the tears, the waste - it just works

never fix before you use

if we had to fix our cars as much as our comptuers we would all be mechanics, fortunately airpc is meant for those of us who do not want to change the oil before driving to see our family. airpc is maintained by professionals and since you buy computing as a service it's their job to keep it going - like a rental a car - you just use it.

no Software Updates

no software updates, no patches, not even any software to install. The computer you use has no serviceable software on it to break, and in the back end the computer is centrally managed, tested and secured to where you have no worries just the fun of using the software.

 no Moving Parts - period

no fans, no hard disks, no noise, no heat. The airpc device/terminal at the end user location is like a brick so even if it does break it simply gets replaced - no monkey-ing with drivers or upgrading.

 no Downtime, no Data Loss

rent instead of buy

if you buy it you own it, but do you really want to own a pile of metal that will be obsolete soon; what if you could get the complete computer experience for a fraction of the cost of a computer and the daily professional maintenance thrown in - not to mention that there is nothing to upgrade, if you want more computer you just make one phone call and voila more memory, more processors, more disk appears for you.

 everything is included

The included terminal device is the size of a book and connects to your monitor or TV. It comes complete with wireless keyboard and mouse, all the cables you need and a small 5 Watt power adapter.

 everything is included

The Operating System (Windows or Linux) that you connect to is included in the price, the Office applications, the web browser and countless other applications all included with the service. If you had to buy this much software and install it yourself it would double the price of your computer. Finally if you want to use a specialty software you can rent that too, for pennies compared to buying the software.

 everything is included

The Support service is included. There is nothing to maintain or update, someone else takes care of backups, updates, security, running computers, connectivity. And when you call for support you can actually get help with applications or what you are trying to do not plugging wire X into connectory Y.

 

 greenest computing

greenest computing starts with your pocket book! airpc leaves more of that nice green money in your pocket: from low monthly cost, to zero maintenance, to rentable applications, to instant low cost upgrades to your computer experience - that's the un-pc difference.

 shared resources

instead of you buring up the electricity with a standalone PC (personal computer) and using about 5% of the resources at any one time you get all the power you need from a server that is shared by many other users. We have the highest number of users per server and we keep it all separate and secure. Through the use of virtualization technology when you connect to your computer it is all dedicated to you, all the other people on the server don't know you even exist.

 10X less energy

how can airpc operate on 10 Watts per computer? The terminal device has no moving parts and only a handful of chips, the back end servers are very efficient and run many computers in a very small space.

 less in the landfill

before Reusing and Recycling, airpc Reduces waste. Because it uses only handfull of chips, small boards, and high density blade servers we can run tousands of computers from the space required for a small refrigerator. That's how we spell conservation of resources - there is no other computing platform that gets even close.
