I have Citrix MPS 4.5 but 2008 Terminal Services seems to be (finally) a viable alternative to this. However it will depend entirely on the speed to my remote sites, and how well it fits in with my future projects (VDI) whether I take the plunge and bin Citrix altogether.
I do have to say though that in the (limited) testing I have done so far that 2008 TS does look quite a good product. 2009/1/7 Tom Miller <[email protected]> > Hi Folks, > > I currently have a Citrix Presentation Server (or whatever it's called this > week) for all remote users, and some internal users.
