[Ubuntu-US-CA] Linux in Glendale Hospital

[Neill Lehr]

Not that I am interested in going to Glendale from San Diego where I reside
I wonder if a visitor could view their new project at Glendale Adventist
Medical Center. It's an interesting story that a hospital has invested in an
in house computer program for patients to have access to while stuck in a
hospital bed.

Neill the never posting sorta new guy. I wonder if I could get energized
enough to visit my old friend who works in Pasadena, see my son in Woodland
Hills and conduct some family commercial real estate business in Northridge
all in one day and stop by Glendale Adventist to see what I can see of their
new Linux installation.

Virtual Linux is the prescription for hospital patients (iTWire)
[Press] Posted Jul 2, 2009 15:43 UTC (Thu) by cook

iTWire reports[1] on a new Linux installation by a Glendale, California
hospital. "Adventist Medical Center (GAMC) has installed thin clients
running Linux virtual desktops in 65 patient rooms in its new West
Tower. "Just as easily as the hospital provides patients with TVs in
rooms, now we provide personal computing," said Roger Pruyne, senior
programmer/analyst and project manager for the GAMC Patient Computing
project. The system combines NoMachine's NX remote access and
virtualisation software, SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop, and an IBM
System x3650 server. GAMC estimates that this approach saves 98 percent
of the cost that would have been involved if conventional PCs had been
selected."
