It has been a few years since I was paid to decision thin client solutions and I hope the market has improved quite a bit. That said, the PCoIP "portal" looks an awful lot like a Sun Ray DTU, minus a few features. It also appears that the server side requires additional hardware and it is looking very PC-centric. Ok, I guess the name gave that away. >From where I sit, SRSS is proven, scalable both horizontally and vertically, >WAN-able and can plug into Windows, X (Solaris/Linux) and probably a lot more. Every release of SRSS adds new goodies while I still use my circa 1999 DTUs. I have doubts that in 2019 one could still use a 2009 PCoIP "portal" in the real world. Of course, I could be wrong. In short, I would turn the question around. Given all that Sun Rays promise (and deliver), why should I use FCoIP? In all seriousness, enlighten us, because I often am wrong.
