QUESTION POSED ON: 09 April 2007
What are the technical limitations and required IT resources need to run Microsoft Windows Vista Enterprise Centralized Desktop?

>
EXPERT RESPONSE
Microsoft Windows Vista Enterprise Centralized Desktop (VECD) requires a fast and reliable network. Links over long distances will likely result in severely degraded performance. Additionally, beefy server hardware will be needed to host the virtualized Windows Vista desktop instances. Look for 4 GB of memory or more, with fast multi-core processors and redundant network links for best results.
