Well, I think that its very uncertain now what the hardware platform for future enterprise desktops are going to become. The SunRay is now 2 to 3 times the price of a low-end laptop. Microsoft has lost the consumer market. Kids are growing up on Samsung and Apple devices. And a host of tablet vendors. COmpanies are going to face LARGE investments in education when Non-microsoft literate graduates walk out the collage/university doors. I believe we are approaching something Next-generation stuff. Or the that the future will be very fragmented , sort of back to the Early 1980:ies pre-PC era. When dozens of manufacturers produced their desktops. with dozens of operating systems.
