Transform existing PCs into a locked thin-client experience with ThinX OS, managed centrally with Xcalibur Global — without buying new hardware for every desk.
ChipPC PC to TC converts compatible x86/x64 PCs into ThinX OS thin-client endpoints for Citrix, Microsoft RDP/AVD and Omnissa Horizon. Devices are managed with Xcalibur Global. Minimum guidance: x86/x64 CPU, ~2 GB RAM, 16 GB storage. For production fleets, ChipPC-certified hardware is recommended; PC to TC is ideal for pilots, refresh deferral and mixed estates.
Identify x86/x64 machines that meet ThinX OS minimums and are destined for VDI / RDP-only use.
Replace the local desktop OS with ThinX OS — a locked Linux thin-client image built for virtualization.
Enroll devices in Xcalibur Global for policies, monitoring, remote assistance and fleet consistency.
Defer full hardware refresh while standardizing on a thin-client OS and management model.
ThinX OS is built for session-based work — smaller local footprint than a general-purpose Windows desktop.
Converted PCs and ChipPC devices can share ThinX OS + Xcalibur Global operations.
Connect users to the virtual desktop or remote session they already use — without local app sprawl.
ThinX OS can run on compatible x86/x64 hardware. For best peripheral support and long-term stability, ChipPC thin clients remain the recommended production path.
| CPU | x86 / x64 compatible (Intel Atom / Celeron / Core i3+ class typical) |
|---|---|
| Memory | At least ~2 GB RAM |
| Storage | At least 16 GB flash / disk for the ThinX OS image |
| Use case | VDI / RDP / cloud desktop sessions — not a full local Windows desktop replacement for heavy local apps |
| Management | Xcalibur Global for ThinX fleets |
Choose conversion when you need speed and reuse; choose new hardware when you want a certified, long-lifecycle fleet.
| Question | PC to TC | New ChipPC thin client |
