4 Screen Virtual Desktop Demo using PCoIP and VMware View

[defofsaradomin]

Mine can only run notepad, paint, calc, .. and more basic stuff.. :D

[ahatom]

Why dont they dare to show how good Office can run on it... I doubt it.

[mi123123123]

...and what about the server? It is the old PC too? ;D

[ManOfMeans]

Coke!

[mflothncomputing]

NComputing is much more exciting: up to 30 L300 zero clients on a 32-bit VM, probably up to 20 playing full screen video at the same time...you need to check this out!

[jabberwolf]

This is stupid...

You could have 8 screens and a low CPU usage.

It depends what it running!!!

Not to mention PCoIP runs great... when its alone on a network... but try about 25 computers in use on one switch.

Not to mention not a solution if your'e remoting from outside, unless you wanna revert back to using RDP.

[TheNonu16]

Can you show the Host CPU utilization?????? that will tell what processing your host is doing.... in trying to render the video!!!!!

[wizdude]

it would be a server running vmware view 4 using the software only implementation of PCoIP.

[noneotheruk]

What was the host? A "normal" server, i.e. without any graphics cards or. ...?

[NetFlux]

Actually you can print with VMWare View.

[UncleKennybobs]

I can't see printing being a major problem, but I guess it depends on support from the underlying system.

Of course, if it's a network printer, it should work fine.

[boxterturbo]

mmm... watching movies are great. but if you are using it to work from remote last I check I can't print in this junk.

[Man0fMetal]

@boxterturbo Printing works fine, besides, who needs printing, i only print airplane tickets. Also its not junk, its pure awesomeness.

(I installed a few network printers and they work flawlessly..)

[jimpfrench]

What's the bandwidth?

[LISCONeisbaer]

like the video! (though would have prefered that you show it with a thin client running LISCON OS ;) )

[adenhond]

Great video!

[bobstarella]

Interesting to see product placement entering your videos Richard. "Coke and McDonalds - powering geeks across the world" :)

Awesome stuff Richard and Andy. The power of View and PCoIP together. A real alternative to those screen hungry city traders who crave more than two monitors
