WTF? Have you been living under a rock? After the newspapers recounted everything many months later, Bush still won. Get over it!
Bush is not to blame for the DOJ not going after Microsoft more. Did you really think that it matters who is in office? Microsoft is big money to both sides... nothing is going to change that EXCEPT the marketplace.
First, put the profile for the Citrix Terminal session on a server local to the Citrix servers. Then there is very little profile copying.
Second, you don't need big boxes. We run 12-18 Compaq DL360's with 2x36GB drives (dual processors) with 4GB of RAM. Citrix is mostly RAM intensive.
Third, use NFuse! You can have the clients connect to a website and run the published apps that way! Very NICE! Get's rid of a lot of end-user configuration that comes with Citrix Program Neighborhood.
Fourth, only run Published applications - don't allow users to connect to a full desktop. This gives you a lot of control over what the user can do, allows you to configure load-balancing properly and is the way to go with NFuse.
Fifth, set IE to clear it's cache when you log off (or write a simple script that cleans the profiles of temp files every night). And set the Citrix server to delete roaming profiles when the user logs off the server (Q173870).
So, store your user home directories and roaming profiles on a couple of file & print servers.
Oh, and I'm also a CCA.... it's a very easy test;-) I got my MCSE back in '97 in 30 days before the whole paper MCSE crap.
BTW, you should know Windows NT & 2000 VERY WELL before you attempt to put in Citrix successfully.
