PC Station

PC Station is a device which is used to share 1 PC into many client users (multi users). We don't have to buy many PC in 1 office with many computer users or employers. For example there are 10 Employers in 1 office that supposed to work with computer. Normally the company will buy 5 PC (personal computer) for each of the employer. But with PC Station, the company only have to buy 1 PC to fulfill 5 employers need. On this case there will be 1 PC, 6 LCD, 6 keyboards n mouses, 6 PC-Station, and 6 LAN Cables attached to 1 switch hub 8 ports.

Advantages of PC-Station :
  • No noise on each client.
  • 1 system computer controlled.
  • Very low electricity cost.
  • Fast installation.
  • Small and light weight device which can be easily moved and much less space will be used. 

Disadvantages of PC-Station :
  • If got bad LAN Cable connection on one of the client, then the client will be stopped and restarted. But there is a chance can login back to the last activity. Because the main server might save the last disconnected client.
  • If the main computer troubled then all clients will stop working and lost current activities.
  • Need huge capacity of UPS (Uninterrupible power suppllies) just in case if got problem with electricity.
  • Need 1 PC with high-end specification as the server.
  • Some Antivirus might cause the clients cannot connect to server.
  • Firewall may need to be turned off in order to client can connect to server.
  • Still need license of softwares each client for legal use such as Microsoft Office.
