Some of the big issues to tackle include:
* Determine hardware costs per TS session (how much ram, disk, etc)
is necessary to support a user.
* How much print spooling will be done
* TS Failover making sure you have 50% free resources
* Sufficient Bandwidth and QoS
* ISP failover
* Perimeter network (router class, firewall, etc)
* Internal vlans, networks, routes, filters, etc
Sounds like a fun project.
