Frankfurt, Germany, 27 June 2006 Â RedHat, Suse, Ubuntu andother Linux distribution users can now run Windows applications seamlessly on theirdesktop with 2X ApplicationServerÂ's Linux client. 2X ApplicationServer is availablefor free for up to 5 applications at:http://www.2x.com/applicat ionserver/application-publishi ng.htm.

Until now, Linux users could only run Windows applications using Windows simulationsoftware (e.g. WINE). This type of software is typically difficult to configure andonly works with a limited number of applications. In addition, this generally wouldonly support older versions. With 2X ApplicationServer however, any Windowsapplication can be tunneled via RDP onto a Linux desktop.

 With the 2X ApplicationServer Linux client, deploying Linux on the desktop becomesmore realistic, since you can continue to use Windows applications which donÂ't havea Linux version said Niko Makris, 2X President.
