[BLUG] Interesting article for those still tethered to Windows by one or two applications

[Simon Ruiz]

Yeah, I use tsclient as well, but I find it annoying and grating-on-the-nerves to switch back and forth between two desktop environments when all I need is that one app, like say Internet Explorer because the only way to access our e-mail at work is through Outlook Web Access (woohoo)...Hey, I wonder if the clipboard works smoothly with this set-up...
 
<random whining>*sigh* I need a new computer...I'm getting sick of not having my own. It makes all the stuff I think would be really neat only really neat in a theoretical sort of way...</random whining>

Pretty neat.  For a long while, I simply used tsclient on my Gentoo
workstation to access my XP workstation at $work.  I was going to
"virtualize" the XP box, but then Vista came along and we bought new
hardware for it anyways.
