from DSSResources.comMulti-user desktop now a reality; a bright future for collaboration on one desktopALMERE, The Netherlands, October 29, 2008 -- WunderWorks, the company that supplies IBM, Barco and other global brands with specialized multi user software, releases a free downloadable version of its TeamPlayer software. It enables multiple users to work together on a single standard Windows computer. The software works with multiple mice and keyboards or other input devices in all existing software. The Dutch company developed the knowledge and software that allows multiple users to work together on one PC. Its products are already delivered to OEM's around the world; it will now make WunderWorks' TeamPlayer software available to the rest of the world. CEO Arpad Gerecsey: "We believe multi-user software is the next big thing. Although PC's have become standard equipment in almost any environment, up until now only one person could work on a PC. Turning the desktop into a public space will bring true digital collaboration within reach. Business meetings, educational sessions and creative gatherings will all benefit from our software. They will not be about one person controlling the mouse and keyboard anymore; anyone can work on the desktop at any time. You can even include your digital whiteboard as an input device. Parents can sit next to their child and together use the computer, simply by adding an extra mouse to the PC. True live digital cooperation is finally here, and people love it!" WunderWorks will add new features monthly, including multi-user white boarding, a Sandbox to create your own multi-user apps, Teacher modules, remote PC/IP input etc. Other releases such as its BrainStorm+(R) application and a PowerPoint(R) plug-in are planned for December 2008. Barco says: "...enhanced efficiency, communication and commitment from our operators..." University InHolland says: "the teacher sits in with the students, and they work through the material together, teaching each other as they go..." A mother says: "I can now assist my five year old, while he discovers the computer, without having to fight him for control over the mouse or keyboard." http://www.wunderworks.com to download TeamPlayer 2.0.
