BOSTON, Aug 11 (Reuters) – Personal computers are going “virtual” as software makers tap the Internet to enable workers to sign on to work wherever they are.

Forget about storing secure data in a smart PC at a specific location. With “virtual PC” software, an employee can use a dumbed-down computer anywhere to log on to the brainpower of a central server, where all essential files are stored.

That way, sensitive information isn’t lost even if the equipment is stolen. In the event of a disaster, virtual PCs can be quickly restored from a backup data center.

Very cool, check out this article talking about how this company is using the internet and virtualization to enable its’ employees to work anywhere. It’s great to see a hospital using virtualization to aid in the delivery of service.
