The availability of 64 bit Terminal Services and/or Metaframe is only as
useful as the applications available for it. Since TS and MF are all =
about
delivering GUI based apps, I have a feeling it may be quite a while =
before
a 64 bit version is available and practical.

Just FYI, Citrix has been "working" on a 64-bit version of MetaFrame for
years now.
When I spoke with product manager (Brian Nason) and the CTO (Bob
Krueger) last October, neither would confirm 64-bit MF. They just said =
that
they would follow customer demand. (So demand it if you want it!!)
I'm sure Citrix will release a 64-bit version of MF eventually, =
especially
once Intel releases their version of the Opterons next year... Just =
don't
hold your breath for it.
On a side note, remember that whatever Bear Paw turns out to be will
presumably also be available in 64-bit flavors.. :-)

We have an Opteron box in our lab that I have scheduled to do some tests =
on.
In an Intel roadmap session today the Intel rep stated that Citrix is
working on a 64 bit version of MetaFrame.

I have an Opteron box on order. It should be here next week. I'll be =
trying
out the 64-bit version of windows as well as the 32-bit version with
MetaFrame. Of course I'll post my results.
Any other tests I should do??
