I've talked about what is new about Windows Server 2008 R2 RDS (Remote Desktop Services) before. This time around, let take a look at the details in a little bit more detail based on the information that Microsoft has made public. This article will focus on the "pure TS features".

My Ultimate ESX Whitebox: Small, Aesthetically Pleasing and under $1000
Thursday, 16 October 2008 by Michel Roth
In my day (and night?) job working for Quest I get to demonstrate the Virtual Access Suite (VAS) a lot. In short this means that I have to demo a VAS infrastructure at the very least consisting of a VAS Connection Broker, a VAS Terminal Server, a VAS Virtual Desktop, a Domain Controller, a VirtualCenter server and a ESX host. With a lot of time and patience one would be able to get pretty far with this with a decent laptop up until ESX. ESX will not run on "normal laptop hardware". Period. So let me share how I found my ultimate ESX Whitebox.

A First look at RTO Virtual Profiles
Wednesday, 09 April 2008 by Michel Roth
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 Releases Hyper-V RC: RTM Will Be Sooner Than Expected, Much Sooner...
Thursday, 20 March 2008 by Michel Roth
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.

Off Shoring Virtual Application Creation
Friday, 14 March 2008 by Michel Roth
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?

About My Decision To Join Provision Networks
Friday, 07 March 2008 by Michel Roth
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.
