A couple of months ago I noticed that RTO was offering a new product called RTO Virtual Profiles. I also said it was probably just another Flex Profiles clone. As it turns out I was quite wrong. Wrong in that the product wasn't officially released yet and wrong in that RTO Virtual Profiles deals with profiles in a very different, refreshing way. I took a look at some of the early betas.

Microsoft just announced that they have delivered the first release candidate (RC) of Hyper-V to the general public. So after shipping Windows Server 2008 with a beta of the Hyper-V role embedded and now, not even a month later, shipping the Hyper-V release candidate, Microsoft is on the fast-track with Hyper-V. Mark my words: Hyper-V will be released (a lot) earlier than August 2008.

Application virtualization, primarily thanks to Microsoft pushing it, has become very popular in companies of all sizes. Implementation of application virtualization or migration to application virtualization isn't something to be taken lightly. Whether you use SoftGrid, Thinstall, Citrix Application Streaming or another product, very specific skills are required to make this work. Why do all the hard work yourself?

This is ironic. I've been scooped myself. As you might have noticed, Brian Madden has blogged about the fact that I have decided to join Provision Networks (now a part of Quest Software). This information came out a little earlier than I planned but I guess this is as good a time as any for me to explain why I decided to join Provision Networks and what will happen to Thincomputing.net.

Centralization and consolidation was and is high on any CIO's wishlist. All this centralization and consolidation offers tremendous advantages but also imposes new challenges to IT infrastructures. So moving everything to the datacenter and managing everything from the datacenter is great but what if you need to move data out of the datacenter? Say if you want to deploy a desktop image to 6500 desktops in 11 other locations? What if you wanted to do that in under four hours? Short of having 100 Gbps connetions between all locations this would prove to be impossible.

I've never been a particular Jerry Springer fan. Recently however, I
found it necessary to reflect on this because I've been actively watching
the amount of mud that is being thrown by VMware and Citrix recently. This
makes the Jerry Springer show look like a Tupperware party.

When I launched the new version of Thincomputing.net some two months ago, I implemented the PHP search function that is native to the CMS I am using. Several of you contacted me to inform that it did not always produced accurate results (kind of like the Citrix support search engine used to be like). So I decided to get the Thincomputing.net search engine "Googlefied"...

RES has just announced that they have released the free version of their flagship product Powerfuse called Powerfuse Express. This version has a subset of all the Powerfuse features for up to 100 concurrent users! The key is of course what this subset of features is made up of. Let's take a quick look, shall we?

It was last September that I blogged about a new
product that Wyse had brought to market: Wyse TCX Multimedia 2.0. I was
intrigued by the concept. And decided to see for myself if Wyse TCX
Multimedia 2.0 really worked. This article discusses my findings.
