Brian Madden: Ive written in the past that part of whats holding back VDI today is that todays VDI is just SBC to single-user VMs instead of multiuser Terminal Servers. So in todays world, VDIs use case is not too much more broad than Terminal Services. However, there are four technical capabilities that I feel will be ready for prime time in June 2010, and once these are here, VDI (or the New Desktop) will really be able to take off. I think its safe to add another requirement for the New Desktop taking off, namely, Windows 7.
