Just FYI, I tried out Jim's new custom google search with some nice results.
I searched www.f1u.com for "Citrix vs Terminal Server" and it
returned several articles that might be of interest to those researching the
differences.

Citrix is an add-on for Terminal Server. The difference in capabilites between the two used to be much wider, in my opinion anyways. Check out http://www.brianmadden.com/content/content.asp?id=494 which is a good article that talks about the differences. I would combine that with reading up on the new Terminal Service capabilities of Longhorn Server at: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver/longhorn/terminal-services/default.mspx

Bottom line is the correct choice of straight terminal services or
terminal services with Citrix comes down to your specific environment.
