Longhorn affect on Terminal Services ...

We have been wondering for some time what the next version of Terminal Services will look like within Microsoft's next generation server operating system: codenamed Longhorn.

Brian Madden has some excellent articles on the "plans" which you can find in this article.

What we have found very interesting is that in the latest beta release, there have been no significant updates to the Terminal Services functionality. Yes, we realize it is still in the plans but based on past performance, we are beginning to wonder what will slip off the list of upgrades in lieu of other core server features that people are looking for.

Regardless, our sense is that even with some advancements in the core Terminal Services environment, Microsoft is still going to be a few years behind the advancements we have made (and continue to make) with Konect.
