Deep Thoughts with Richard Schoen

Here’s a cool product that I found on the web that can be used to allow a single XP PC to host multiple users at the same time via the Windows Terminal Services RDP client software. The product is called XP Unlimited. The benefit of software like the XP Unlimited product is the fact that a single low-end Windows XP workstation can be easily turned into a multi-user Windows Terminal Server without the expense of purchasing a large server. For users who are sending a lot of email, surfing the web, word processing, using iSeries 5250 emulation or other similar tasks, the XP Unlimited software can be a great way to save money and bring your PC budgets back in line. By allowing user’s older existing PC’s to be used as a simple Windows Terminal that accesses a more powerful Windows XP PC where all the software is loaded, IT departments can extend the life of existing PC investments and minimize the purchase of new hardware every 1-2 years. Check it out and let me know what you think.
