I also this we have an awesome solution running "true virtualization", SoftGrid apps running on VMware distributed OSs, served up by Blades.... (Although, if you truly virtualize, you can deploy to any hardware, although blades have a lot to offer, that is for sure) The enterprise hosted desktop! <http://www.crn.com/sections/breakingnews/breakingnews.jhtml?articleId=1 72302237> IBM taps VMware, Citrix to create blade PCs <http://computerworld.com.sg/ShowPage.aspx?pagetype=2%26articleid=2915%2 6pubid=3%26issueid=70> IBM set to launch PC by the back door <http://news.zdnet.co.uk/hardware/0,39020351,39231614,00.htm> DB Douglas A.

Jim What is Application Virtualization?" - Webinar A Comparison between Softricity SoftGrid, Altiris Software Virtualization Solution, Citrix Presentation Server 4.0, and Citrix Project Tarpon At this year's iForum, Citrix made the claim that Presentation Server and newly announced Project Tarpon is application virtualization software, a space created and lead by Softricity SoftGrid.

To answer this question and clarify the growing competition in this space, I'm going to be presenting a webinar on Tuesday, November 1, 2005 at 12:00 PM (Eastern Standard Time) to answer all your questions and more. This webinar will discuss the differences between Softricity SoftGrid, Altiris Software Virtualization Solution, and Citrix Presentation Server 4.0 & Project Tarpon, along with answering the bigger question: "What is Application Virtualization?" ======================================================================== ====== Please access the attached hyperlink for an important electronic communications disclaimer: http://www.csfb.com/legal_terms/disclaimer_external_email.shtml ======================================================================== ======
