[THIN] Re: VDI - Windows 7

My experiences with Win7 so far have been much more favorable than Vista. 
I currently have it loaded on an old 1.0 GHz celeron laptop with only 512 
meg of RAM and it's actually usable.  It may not be fast but it is faster 
than my wife's newer laptop (not exactly sure of GHz ) that has 2 gig of 
ram.  Even after removing most of the crap the vendor preloads on the 
laptops, hers still consumes over a gig just booting up while the Win7 one 
is sitting at a little over 300 meg.

Bad news, Windows 7 is basically Vista with more bells and Whistles.

One of the things holding us back from a full-throated VDI deployment was 
a feeling that if we deployed XP we were going to be investing in a 
?moving-towards-redundant? way, while if we deployed Vista virtual PCs our 
available RAM was going to vanish fast.
 
Has anyone started deploying Windows 7 in either test or production?
