It also depends on who you talk to at Microsoft, if you ask three Sales = reps the same question, your likely to get three different responses.

Here's what they told me. 1) If you buy Windows XP prior to April 24th with Software Assurance, you are covered for Sever 2003 CALs. After that and you are = out. 2) There is an External Connection License that replaces the Internet Connector License. It is a per-server license, rather than the = Per User like the ICL. 3) Their opinion was that named user CALs and regular per-device CALs would likely be priced the same. I'm still a bit dubious of that = one, since it seems like a losing proposition for MS depending on your setup. Anyway, just some interesting tidbits to pass along. -Paul ********************************************************* This Week's Sponsor - ThinPrint Simply the best print solution for Citrix Metaframe and Microsoft Terminal Services! http://www.thinprint.com ********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or=20 set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm ********************************************************* This Week's Sponsor - ThinPrint Simply the best print solution for Citrix Metaframe and Microsoft Terminal Services! http://www.thinprint.com ********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm
