Are you sure?

Or, how long ago are you talking?

What 5, maybe 10 years ago, MS licensed (purchased?) some stuff from
Citrix, which is why Terminal Server suddenly became significantly
more viable when it did.

	Not sure how far that extended, seems to me there was still a
preference for Citrix when you want to make a group of particular apps
available rather than entire Windows desktops.

	On that one, it was MS doing the seeking, not the other way around. IIRC.
