Sounds great - ok, so for hardware virtulaization, am I understanding this correctly? You need the MDOP license and a Cidaro (sp?)product? - Linda

You'll just need software assurance to get MDOP. Kidaro was the acquired product and is now called Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization (MED-V) and will be included in the next release of MDOP sometime early next year I believe. But you can get MDOP now which includes other nice products, including App-V.
