The Hindu Business Line : RingCube to offer virtual Pocket PC

Hyderabad, Sept. 27 A ‘Virtual PC’, that you can plug in into any desktop at your neighbourhood ‘Cybercafe’ or far off work space, and use like your own personal computer, would be available gratis in India soon.

All you require is a pen drive or any storage device, onto which you can download the software that will enable it to be transformed into a pocket computer.

Making this free software offer is the developer of ‘Mojopac’, US-based RingCube Technologies, which claims to revolutionalise personal computing through its virtual desktop technologies.

The Founder Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mr Shan Appajodu announced the launch of `Mojopac Freedom’, which he claimed to be the world’s first and only free desktop virtualisation software in India.

Explaining the features of the product to newspersons, Mr Shan said the software captures everything that is important to users on the PC, such as software applications, configurations, settings and data files and stores it on a storage device. By lugging that storage device into any Windows PC, users can transform it into a customised PC.

Mojopac does not require any specialised software to be installed on the host PC. A user can install any language pack such as Hindi or Telugu on the device and use that language interface on the PC. Oneu can be in a conference in Tokyo and convert a Japanese language PC into an English PC using the software, he said.

RingCube Technologies, which has a development centre in Hyderabad, plans to increase its strength from 12 to 50 by 2007 and 200 by end of 2008.
