‘Ni hai hao ba?’ (Greetings)I previously mentionedthatour partnership with the Raspberry Pi foundation and ecosystem partners forgedsomething revolutionary: the high performance, low-cost device, HDX Ready Pi. Sun Tzu once said, “let your plans be dark … and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.” And indeed, the HDX Ready Pi has smashed through disbelief in the world of thin clients with performance only Citrix and the UKEngineering team can deliver.But let us test whether or not Pi is aworthy opponentinthe Art of War.
“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.” This small and lightweightpackage delivers knockoutperformance atup to 1080p30 with JPEG and up to 1080p60 with H.264. Normally pricedat $79, but currently available to Citrix customers for $59 (for alimitedtime … RUN HERE).
“The greatest victory is that which requires no battle.” TheHDX Ready Pi from Micro Centerdoubles as a hardened, zero client, or as a Raspberry Pi computer.
