Modern PCs spend virtually the entire day idle. By leveraging this under-utilized capacity, our innovative software delivers a compelling “10-to-1 advantage” on deploying your desktops.
NLD Multiplier allows for multiple instances of the same applications and programs to run simultaneously for multiple users on their individual monitors and keyboards at the same time, all plugged into the same desktop PC.
Designed as a simple software add-on to the Novell Linux Desktop, this powerful solution is ideal wherever two or more PCs are in close physical proximity
Multiplier’s “10-to-1 Advantage”

How Does the Multiplier Work?
Key Points• Thin layer of software that
wraps around Linux kernel• Listens for:
(1) keyboard input; (2) mouse input; and (3) monitor output
• Assigns these to a unique user session
• Tracks up to 10 independent user sessions at the same time

How Does the Multiplier Work?
The Novell Linux Desktop Multiplier virtualises Linux's user interface layer so that a single computer box can drive the user interface hardware for multiple simultaneous users.
The Multiplier is transparent to the Linux Kernel and is compatible with the Novell Client for Linux and ZENworks.
