Latest Generation Desktop Computers: What Buyers Should Know
A latest generation desktop computer is a system built on the newest processor platform that a manufacturer has. The Thinvent range does not include processors from the newest Intel generations. The Thinvent Neo S thin clients use the 7th generation Intel Celeron J1900 processor, which has 4 cores, a maximum frequency of 2.4 GHz and 2 MB of cache. These systems suit fixed tasks such as data entry, kiosks, point of sale, digital signage and remote desktop access, where low power use and a small footprint matter more than raw speed.
