We have run a similar config (on a smaller scale) and everything worked
fine. My only observation would be that by allowing the PC users to choose
between Desktop + Published App or just published app you loose many of the
management benefits when they just run published app. I would be tempted if
possible to force everyone to run Published Desktop and work from there.
I know that has financial implications but the benefits are huge.

Mike

Subject: [THIN] Design question
Hi,
We were thinking of creating the following design in our new MF XPe =
environment. In the future we plan to have about a 1000 ThinClients and a =
1000 PC's.=20
Grouped in a farm, there will be two blocks.=20
First there will be a block of "desktop" servers. These are W2k MFXPe =
servers, that hold the desktop as a published application. These servers =
will enable the user to run some standard software everybody uses, like =
Office2k, GroupWise 5.5 and a terminal application.
Next to this block is a block of application servers. They don't offer a =
desktop, only published apps. Apps are divided over a few servers for =
loadbalancing.
All ThinClient users, will connect to the desktop servers and then pick =
other published apps. All pc users can make their own choice between =
desktop or directly a published app.
Any comments on this? Or is more info needed?
Gabrie
