    <p>Multi-Channel Server (MCS) helps you manage the complexity of delivering
      a wide variety of content to PCs, PDAs, mobile phones, internet appliances,
      games consoles and interactive kiosks.
    </p>
    <dividehint/>
    <p>To deliver to multiple channels, you need to present content, services
      and applications in a consistent way across all target devices. In MCS
      you can separate application design from device delivery, and build
      a cost-effective and scalable system, by defining policies.</p>
