When I told Kurt Maier about our next meeting topic, he explained that he uses XEN at the MTSU campus to host a lot of virtual images. I think he uses nomachine.com I believe to serve out to 850+ computers at the campus.
Basically, he would be a very good person to speak to about this at next month's meeting. I can send him a message and ask him to pipe in her on this topic. Well, after I told him we were going to have presentations on nomachine and virtualization he said he was not going to his class on Tuesday night in Dec. so he could attend and present.
I think we are going to have three presenters next meeting.
