Sun Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAVA) today announced the company nearly doubled shipments of its
Sun Ray thin clients during the fourth quarter of Sun's 2008 fiscal year, compared to the third quarter of its 2008 fiscal year. Sun Ray unit shipments are growing faster than the thin client industry at large, underscoring the increased appeal thin client and desktop virtualization solutions are experiencing among businesses and organizations. Contributing to this growth is strong market demand for Sun Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) Software 2.0, which now ships on approximately 25% of Sun Ray units since being introduced in March 2008, in addition to the unparalleled choice Sun Ray thin clients offer customers, enabling them to display Solaris, Windows or Linux desktops on the same device.
