The name changes are annoying. Must have seen MS do it and had to jump on the bandwagon.. I maintain TS farms and Citrix XenApp farms. The TS is on 2008 and I understand it's better on R2. Even on 2008 it is good, but XenApp (was Presentation Server was Metaframe...) makes it so much easier. The (not so) funny part is that I have a XenApp farm for our Great Plains users. GP is a Microsoft product, but there are display issues on Terminal Server that are known and currently not resolved. I do wish Citrix had better pricing (there is no non-profit pricing at all). I'd buy more but apparently that company thinks their products are more valuable than pixie dust. However we plan to start using XenDestop soon and that looks very cool.

With their product name changes every damn release and their hotfixes that fix things and then break more things. TS/RD Gateway and RemoteApp provide everything we need these days. No Citrix means one less license to buy as well. Of course Citrix is far more advanced but life is easier without it.

Webster From: James Rankin [mailto:kz2...@googlemail.com] Subject: Re: Citrix client After extensive testing with myself and my minion over the last ten minutes, we have already concluded that Quick Launch is better than the old PN client. Much less messing about with application sets. Cool.

According to the article, you must already have a Citrix ICA client installed for Quick Launch to work. Webster From: Michael B.
