What Is a New Generation Computer?
A new generation computer is a current-design system that uses newer processors, faster memory and solid-state storage. Thin clients in this category run applications from a server or the cloud, so the device itself needs little processing power. The Thinvent Neo S range is built on this model. Each unit uses an Intel J1900 processor from the 7th generation of Intel's Celeron series.
Key Specifications
The Neo S models share the same processor and platform. The J1900 has 4 cores, a maximum frequency of 2.4 GHz and 2 MB of cache. Memory options are 4 GB or 8 GB of DDR3 RAM. Storage options include 32 GB MLC SSD, 128 GB SSD and 256 GB SSD, and some models use two storage drives. Power adapters are rated 19V 1.3A or 19V 3A.

Neo S thin clients suit offices, call centres, retail counters, schools and kiosks. Because the units use solid-state storage, they have no hard disk to fail from movement.

One model is supplied with a Thinvent keyboard and mouse set.
