The  desktop  computing  landscape  is  evolving.  As  organizations  and  their 
workforces  become  increasingly  distributed  and  mobile,  an  explosion  of  
new  end-user  devices  has  exacerbated  the  challenges  being  faced  by  IT 
departments.  These  challenges  include  ensuring  data  and  device  security 
regardless  of  location,  managing  data  and  applications  consistently  across  
the organization, and providing support for the myriad of emerging devices  
and applications. Traditional computing has addressed the key customer pain 
points in a limited fashion.
Dell’s new desktop computing vision — Flexible Computing — delivers validated solutions 
(hardware, software, and services) that augment Dell’s traditional desktop offerings and 
enable IT departments to navigate their increasingly complex environment.
Understanding that often the optimal flexible computing approach is a combination 
of solutions, Dell developed the new OptiPlex FX160 flexible computing node that is 
optimized for two of Dell’s Flexible Computing Solutions: On-Demand Desktop Streaming 
and Virtual Remote Desktop.  In doing so, customers can now confidently invest in a client 
device that supports the right solution for today with the flexibility to support the needs 
of tomorrow. For more information about Dell Flexible Computing Solutions, please visit:
