Re: Businesses don't work like that

@Charles 9 - You are still effectively running a PC, you've just moved it to a server instead.

My question is this - why? The cost of introducing a VDI solution which has enough grunt to handle the work of a proper desktop (eg. if you need a graphics card to do stuff) is pretty high.

It'd take a proper cost benefit analysis to decide if such a setup would actually gain you anything.

It certainly wouldn't here. A VDI solution powerful enough to do the job of our PCs would cost us roughly 2 times the price of simply continuing to use full fat clients.
