And did you notice that there were several other interesting articles available at the networkcomputing.com site? And then there is the thinplanet site. Citrix has an informative www page but little helpful to say on Java except that they do license it and that "MetaFrame also supports non- Windows clients including DOS, UNIX,Mac OS, Java..." so they imply here that it's just another client OS.
I haven't had time to go over the article I posted yet but will do so today and also double read your posts. I'm beginning to think that the whole Citrix question is similar to an onion. Just when you think you have the answer you find another layer.
It seems to me than many of the non CTXS solutions are like a military $1500 toilet. It works, it may even be an elegant solution to a problem, but we already have toilets so why spend the money to design a new one? Furthermore this toilet is here now, and we know it works. A lot of this is political and psychologic. MSFT is beginning to reap what they sewed. Almost everybody in the industry hates them and are willing to go to a lot of trouble to avoid them (and I'm a MSFT shareholder)This is especially true of engineers and journalists. When it comes down to management actually spending the money though, they may tend to hold their nose and choose the CTXS solution, just as they chose Dells over Apples.
