Intel's Lean ClientGuidelines for low priced thin client PCs.By bringingtogether the Intel Architecture with the JavaOS forBusiness software,IBM and Intel hope to expand thechoices for customers seeking network computingsolutions  \nWhen IBM and others including Sun andOracle Corp.first announced the Network Computerconcept in 1996,both Intel and Microsoft criticized theidea.The two firms later came out with thin clientguidelines of their own.NCs have been slow to catchon though,as PC prices continue to collapse.  \nJavaOS for Business,an actual operatingsystem for NCs based on the

toWindows CE,a stripped down version of WindowsMicrosoft developed to run on thin clients and smallconsumer electronics devices.  \nIBM says it will also develop a version of itsNetwork Station network computer using an Intelmicroprocessor,for the high end of the Network Stationfamily.The Intel-based NC from IBM is expected tobe available in the first halfof1999,running JavaOS
