I'm in a similar situation but have done a bit of research looking into other solutions. The reality is that if you're at that level, ie 3 or even more than 1 server +, you're going to need the support of a large corporation to do this. We run about 12 locations USA - wide, and all use Citrix for our main apps to our local Corp location here in Texas. Yes, we had printing and major accounting issues early on, but there are ways around them and really, they can be solved in quirky ways but solved nonetheless. Yes, it's a bit buggy and has its certain 'ways of doing things', but really there's no _better_ option. As far as RDP, Citrix pretty much purchased the code on RDP from MS, and developed forward from there, so that route would be a backstep. What version and SP are you at? The benefit of dealing with such a popular option is that your problem(s) are likely already documented and reported/fixed. Printing has been a real bear in the past, thank goodness I've finally got it under control. It went from about 90% of my problems to about 0%, all with tweaks and a SP upgrade. Most of the fixes for any printing problem were restarting the printing service on that particular Citrix server. We use Exchange as well, if that helps. To recap, everything USA wide is either Exchange-email, F-Drive= file use, 6 apps = Citrix.
He was right to ask that. It is a complete nightmare when you're trying to light a shot correctly only to shoot it and it's ruined because 3 or 4 other camera's are flashing away.
Bigger targets? Are those bigger targets sending billions of dollars like the USA in military forces to support a country or factions that the terrorists hate?
They didn't crash a few planes into the Leaning tower of Piza, or the Eiffel Tower...
So I'm dying to know which category you are in:
Funny Clothes or Dark skin?
I've been through that line more than a few times,
although I don't think I dress funny and have light skin.
You use about 10 TOO MANY exclamation points in ANY of your responses to be taken seriously.
Learn how to write. I'm suprised your responses weren't in all caps.
I know, a lot of people screw it up, and you're one of them. It's VEGA, the "V" has a shadow with a silhouette. As another poster pointed out, the name originated from the german form of "Wega", which is still pronounced "Vega".
The shadowed "V" is used in the manuals as well and is a Registered trademark.. see the little "r" after the name on the website you quoted? They wouldn't need to do that if it was just merely "Wega". I bought a "Wega" tv when they first came out about 3-4 years ago when they first came out, and promptly called up Sony to ask what the real pronunciation was (Vega). Please do your homework.
Some interesting Sci-fi books on the matter..
on
AI in Sci-Fi

.. are Frank Herbert's Destination Void series.
The 4 books are,
Destination Void, The Jesus Incident, The Lazarus Effect, and The Ascension Factor.
They're all a very good read and Herbert really makes you think. (If you've read all of his Dune books you'd probably agree)
I'm not going to spoil the books by describing them, but they are very good.
As a person who works in a school district.. I have nothing but almost instant distain when I see a teacher or Campus Instructional Technologist (Teacher with PC skills) send me an email with the word "loose" instead of 'lose' in it. I mean, THESE are the people teaching our children.. I usually respond with "So your pc is loosing its settings, or losing them?" What is going to happen when our spelling teachers start making these mistakes? It's not that these are inadvertent extra keystrokes.. as "alot" and "loose/lose" are two of the most gross spelling errors someone can make. And to top it all off, it IMMEDIATELY discredits you or whatever you're saying to anyone that read that email/text.
The point wasn't that this person had their arms/legs etc ripped off by rain from the air, but rather by rain that had caused a torrent of flooding. THAT certainly sounds plausible given the channeling effects of the narrow valley and two already swollen rivers.
we're definitely at a turning point as far as miniturization vs. usability.. our toys / technology can only get so small before it becomes impractical to use. It will be interesting to see what is innovated on besides speed once this hurdle is passed. Per John Carmack we're almost at a similar point in video cards functionality wise.

RTFA, There's comments on the bottom about this - they missed the coral, hit some rock.

You have a truly dizzying intellect
Look no further than a Dell 4100 Inspiron. = Done.

How ironic.. He's asking for fuel, and they give him a couch in the refuelling shed ?!!
"Fair Use" copies? Oh, nevermind - we can't have that..

Then again here on Slashdot it'd be "disloose"
Reminds me of the perpetual motion machine.. where you tie a piece of buttered bread to the back of a cat and drop it.
Thank you for taking the time to be wrong :)

Unfortunately it's sad that multiple misuses of the word LOSE vs LOOSE completely ruin a comment or it's credibility.
I work for Rackspace, and it isn't us. I don't understand why this wasn't checked, but hey I'm all for free advertising!
Argh.. it's LOSE not LOOSE.. Goddamn that has come up more in the last few days of 5+ posts it's disconcerting.

Great to see on /. an informed SR'er giving an informed reply!
