The Short Life Expectancy of the Virtualized Desktop

,----[ Quote ]
| Most users don’t care which operating system they use and many of them don’t 
| know what they’re using anyway. What they really want is applications and 
| more than 90% of all users use; a word processor, a spreadsheet, a web 
| browser, and email. Why not remove the OS question completely by just using a 
| browser for everything—even the Desktop itself? How much bandwidth would you 
| need if all your users only used a web browser—for everything?
