  P.S. We have and run Citrix at my work. It's great for it's niche and what it does. It took years, of research, experimenting, vendor support, heavy back end hardware and * MONEY * to get it working rock solid right. Yes..we have Citrix but WE own the servers, network and integrate everything about our infrastructure ourselves. We find it a heck of a lot more reliable that way. When fingers need to point, we KNOW who can and WILL fix things.

  Users, and more importantly companies - will not trust computing that they down control and own. PERIOD. This myth that you just purchase and rent apps and run it all virtually over the network - I don't believe it and/or see it happening and I work for a very large multistate healthcare organization. We tried moving all of our servers to a central location and found out there were a few apps that didn't LIKE being run across a 400 mile distance. Couple this with the fact that PCs 3Ghz PCs are relatively cheap and..... it's a no brainer to keep - and use - that kind of distributed computing. A third party vendor does not have as much interest in your business as an in house IT shop.
