Wyse Teams Up With Trusted Healthcare Information Solutions Alliance (THISA) To Demonstrate Thin Computing Solutions at HIMSS 07 Conference

THISA's Annual Exhibit Showcases Best-of-Breed IT Solutions for Healthcare Industry

NEW ORLEANS, LA. – 02/25/2007 - Wyse Technology, the global leader in thin computing, today announced that it will be a featured solution provider of the Trusted Healthcare Information Solutions Alliance (THISA), a national network of regional IT solution providers dedicated to delivering high confidence information solutions to healthcare organizations, in Booth #5611 at the annual conference of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS), February 25 -- March 1 in New Orleans, LA.

This year's show theme of "Transforming Healthcare Through IT" will be illustrated in the THISA booth, which will showcase real-world success stories of multi-vendor solution sets designed to address the IT challenges of healthcare organizations today. THISA will feature a live demonstration of smooth roaming, while video testimonials will highlight network security and ID/access management, to data center consolidation and virtualization, to business continuity and disaster recovery, and more.

"Healthcare organizations face a unique and daunting set of IT challenges," said Maryam Alexandrian, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Sales and Channels for Wyse Technology. "Our secure thin computing solutions when coupled with wireless capabilities enable organizations to provide the highest quality of medical care while meeting the most stringent security demands. The ability to reduce the administrative burden, lower electrical power consumption, as well as helping with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliance, all add up to an unbeatable value proposition."

THISA's mission is to make IT efficient and easy to use, so healthcare organizations can focus on what they do best - delivering the very best in quality care for patients. Collectively spanning nearly 80 percent of the US, THISA members offer unmatched breadth and depth of technical expertise, strong customer commitment, and the ability to deliver on time, in scope, and on budget -- all from a single source.

"A critical element in what makes THISA effective is the ability of our alliance members to pull together best-of-breed software and networking solutions into a cohesive 'solution set' tailored to meet the specific demands of healthcare organizations, and seamlessly integrate within their own unique, often disparate, IT environments," said Bert Short, President of I-Access and a founding member of THISA. "Wyse, with its thin computing solutions, plays a key role by supplying a vital component to our multi-vendor, customer-centric solution offerings."
