The X550 kit includes a PCI card that you install inside a host PC and several small access devices (modules). You connect extra keyboards, mice, and monitors to these modules. The NComputing software creates independent "sessions" on the host computer, allowing up to 5 or 6 users to work simultaneously on a single tower PC. ncomputing x550 software for windows 7
| Pros | Cons | | :--- | :--- | | Low Cost: Drastically reduces hardware and electricity costs. | Obsolescence: Relies on an unsupported OS (Win 7). | | Simple Management: One PC to maintain instead of five. | Performance Ceiling: Cannot handle modern web-heavy apps or video streaming well. | | Durability: The X550 modules are robust and hard to break. | Driver Issues: Difficult to migrate to Windows 10 or 11. | | Eco-Friendly: Uses very little power per station. | Host Dependency: If the host PC crashes, everyone loses their work. | Patch policy:
Solutions like ThinLinc (free up to 10 users) or Apache Guacamole can turn any Windows 7 PC into a multi-user terminal without proprietary hardware – though performance will be software-rendered. Data protection:
Raspberry Pi 4 devices cost less than $50 each and can connect to a modern Windows Server 2019/2022 via RDP, offering better performance than the aging X550.
