N computing

What is Ncomputing? 

Ncomputing is technology that allows multiple users to share 1 computer simultaneously, this means that with ncomputing you could have 1 ordinary desktop computer catering for 11 people or more at the same time.

How does it work? 

The additional users connect to the shared computer using a device, the monitor,keyboard and mouse connect to the device, the device is then connected to the shared computer through a cable. This version of Ncomputing comes in a kit for 5 users and has proven to be the most popular for schools, some of the schools using this system are Rhodespark school, Chassa Secondary school, Linda High school, Luanshya Technical College Management Board to name a few.


Why use Ncomputing? 

The main benefit is that it is a cheaper alternative to the desktop computer, since modern computers are powerful enough to cater for more than 1 user Ncomputing taps into that performance power that would otherwise have remained idle. It also benefits an organization in that when they need to upgrade there I.T in a few years instead of finding funds to buy a whole fleet of New desktop computers they merely have to buy and replace the computer that was being shared by multiple users.
