On the negative, consider that anything new will inevitably have some
bugs. One the positive, Citrix has already deployed 4.5 within their own
IT infrastructure!

*Subject:* [THIN] PS 4.5 upgrade? or PS 4
Guys
I know this is fairly early for definitive answers but hoping somebody has
some good ideas.
We are embarking on an upgrade now from XPe to PS 4.x.
We had planned to go to 4 and then 4.5 later in the year. We were
anticipating that the 4.5 release would be a bit late but they have
surprised us with the release before the end of 1st quarter.
Our pilot is not due to start till the end of March.
Thought as to use PS 4 or rather 4.5 to save us some time later in the
year. Concerned about using the latest bleeding edge technology. After all
citrix is not known for it's pristine bug free software at the first
attempt. Thoughts on if we did go with 4.5 and had problems, citrix turn
around time on fixes? I guess I'm thinking a pilot is a good time to find
the issues and as long as we have good turn around on fixes it shouldn't be
too bad.
Anyone got any good feedback already about how smooth 4.5 works or plans
to implements rapidly? Any one been running the beta for a long time and
found it quite reliable?
I've also heard rumours that moving from 4 to 4.5 is not quite as easy as
say going from PS3 to PS4 as there are that much more components and
configuration to think about. Is this true?.
Thanks Malcolm
