>>I tried it out. Works great and was as fast as Winframe. Downside is that only one user per server is allowed, and that is a biggie. But it shows that competition is likely somewhere down the road.<<

Roger, I went to their site. It's interesting. Looks a lot like Winframe. I downloaded the free client software, but it isn't an executable file? So I didn't know what to do with it. The site isn't set up like Citrix's site. It's not real user friendly (at least to this user). But I'll take your word for it. Their screen shots helped a lot. Does look an awful lot like Citrix. You can even access the server remotely via a web browser. This is what I thought was really neat about WinFrame. I sure hope Microsoft never mentions, "ORL."

>>One of the more successful Winframe apps has been with PeopleSoft installations. But I understand that the latest release of PeopleSoft has built in remote access and no longer requires Winframe.<<

Built-in remote access? Not good news for Citrix if PeopleSoft doesn't use Citrix technology for remote access. Did you find anymore information concerning this? I'm curious what this is about. You would think that if PeopleSoft is using Citrix technology, they would certainly use the remote access part.
Thanks,
