But would that be the Desktop Product or the Vmware product?

Yes, but, Citrix is talking more and more about the desktop environment-
maybe they will include the desktop Aurema in their Virtual Desktop
solution!!

I wouldn't expect a lot of help there. The release says they are only
retaining 7 employees (presumably developers), and history indicates that
not all are likely to want to stay. Citrix will also want the fuller
product put on the server. The desktop problem is different than the server
problem, even if the developer uses the same underlying interfaces to craft
a solution.

Joe, that is a GREAT question. I've also heard rumors that Citrix was
experiencing issues with Tarpon around performance. I think that was in the
early builds and I know the finial release of AIE is a lot better than ever
before but it still takes up cycles. This being said, I heard rumors that
Citrix was looking at using Aurema to help with desktop deployments of
Tarpon. now that Citrix owns it I think they could do this and really add a
killer feature to Tarpon that others don't have. It ought to be
interesting.... As always...

Wow. I wonder what this means for the non-Presentation Server (or as
Citrix puts it, Virtualization Products) product lines (Desktop, Exchange,
SQL, etc)

guys, check this out:
Rumor - Citrix Eyes Acquisition of Aurema
The word on the street is that Citrix is about to announce the acquisition
of CPU tuning expects, Aurema. Citrix and Aurema have a relationship
dating back to 2004 when Citrix licensed Aurema's workload management
technology.
...
The interesting part of this story is that Aurema is said to be going under
as it has been rumored they lost their biggest customer, IBM, recently.
This being said and because of the fact that Citrix licensed Aurema's
technology vs. owning it outright, Citrix needs to find a way to secure the
code or find another solution and fast. I've also heard the Aurema
employees are out beating the streets for employment. All this makes me
believe this rumor is true and Citrix will basically pick up Aurema for next
to nothing.
...

and it goes on.... this is a really interesting story. I can't wait to see
what happens... I could be wrong... that is for sure.. so what do you
think?
(sorry for the second email but I wanted to make sure the title was right)
