KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Aug. 24, 2001 (PRIMEZONE) -- Neoware Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:NWRE), the leading supplier of award-winning software and solutions for the Appliance Computing market, will demonstrate its family of thin client appliances as part of the Citrix Big Tour 2001.
The Citrix Big Tour is a road show and seminar series for the members of the Citrix Solutions Network, Citrix's authorized resellers. Neoware will demonstrate its Eon and Capio thin client appliances, and its remote management software, on the tour taking place through the months of September and October in the following cities:
Calgary, AB Tuesday, September 4, 2001
Seattle Thursday, September 6, 2001
San Francisco Tuesday, September 11, 2001
Los Angeles Thursday, September 13, 2001

Neoware's Eon and Capio thin client appliances are cost-effective alternatives to personal computers used by businesses, and are powerful replacements for green-screen terminals. Used in conjunction with Citrix MetaFrame or Microsoft Terminal Services, Neoware's Eon and Capio appliances allow users to run virtually any application from a server, plus connect to mainframes, midrange systems, and the Internet. Unlike personal computers, Neoware's thin client appliances can be centrally managed and remotely configured, which greatly simplifies and lowers the cost of desktop administration. Because of this, Eon and Capio can save customers up to 80% of the total cost of ownership of personal computers, resulting in significant cost savings for enterprise customers and a return on up-front investment within the first year of ownership.
The Big Tour is a Citrix-hosted series designed to provide the latest news and information regarding Citrix products and technologies to information systems, technical, and sales personnel, and Citrix Solution Network decision-makers. Attendees at the Big Tour will benefit by gaining a better understanding of how to sell and support Citrix and Neoware products and by speaking one-on-one with Citrix and Neoware employees.

"Neoware is pleased to sponsor the Citrix Big Tour and demonstrate the capabilities of our award-winning Eon and Capio thin client appliances," stated Michael Kantrowitz, president and CEO of Neoware Systems. "Neoware's products enable users to get the most from Citrix MetaFrame and fit into any environment, whether they are seeking low-cost, off-the-shelf products or customized solutions."
