Yes agreed,  I would only use it as a backup scenario. All of my TS's are on 
actual hardware. While we are on the subject has anyone tried publishing a VM 
using the vmware player as a one off for a remote workstation access yet?

But you have to admit that they will get less response and less users on a VM 
than by going direct to hardware.  Unless these are lightly used TS boxes, 
VMWare is just not a good fit.

Terminal services is not a good match with VMWare at this time.  You won't get 
near the response times as being on direct hardware.

We are finding that response times for our clients applications are
coming up significantly slower than with a standalone configuration of
the same box.  Any advice would be appreciated.
