I love this: Q. <<...OLE_Obj...>> Why didn't you implement concurrent or Per Session TS licensing? It was included in Release Candidate 1(RC1)-why did you take it out? <<...OLE_Obj...>> <<...OLE_Obj...>> <<...OLE_Obj...>> A. <<...OLE_Obj...>> Per Session licensing was evaluated in the beta and RC1 pre-release versions of Terminal Server in Windows Server 2003. During the evaluation period, Microsoft received customer feedback that Per Session was good, but that it was being used as a substitute for Per User licensing. In addition, Microsoft has received regular feedback that consistency in licensing should be a top priority. Windows Server 2003 will offer user licensing in Windows Server 2003; therefore, user licensing for Terminal Server is more consistent with Windows Server, and is more in line with the future direction of Microsoft licensing. Sure... sure it is. -Paul > ---------- > From: Jim Powell[SMTP:jim.powell@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Reply To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2003 1:20 PM > To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [THIN] Re: Windows 2003 > > > Microsoft just posted the Windows Server 2003 Pricing: > http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/howtobuy/pricing/default.mspx > > And a long discussion of licensing under Windows Server 2003: > http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/howtobuy/licensing/default.ms > px > > Jim Powell > > > > > Oh spirits of the ouija board - how shall we license our next > generation of > > Operating Systems? > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Jim Kenzig" <jimkenz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > To: <thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 12:46 AM > > Subject: [THIN] Re: Windows 2003 > > > > > > > > > > All subject to change if the wind blows right and there is a full > moon on > > > the fourth Tuesday of the month. ; ) > > > Hey it is Wednesday after all. > > > JK > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On > > > Behalf Of Stansel, Paul > > > Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2003 11:39 AM > > > To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' > > > Subject: [THIN] Re: Windows 2003 > > > > > > > > > > > > Just got off the phone from an extensive conversation about > > > licensing with our sales reps.
