VMWare and RTO

So VMWare have done it, yes they have bought RTO well the bits that they could anyway. And I have to say what a good thing, the one big issue that all of the VDI and Remote desktop solutions have is the mangement of the user component not the actual desktop, the desktop and user presentation issues have mostly been fixed over the last couple of years. But this user bit has been a big issue since I can remember, yes there are 3rd party solutions such as Appsense and RES Software (Powerfuse), but what has allwas been required was all of this from a single company.
But of course if only Microsoft was to fix the issues and move away from those bloody roaming profiles as there answer to the question, yes I know that things have improved in the last few years but really the profile and group policy solution is tha same as it was with windows 2000.

Hospital Today - not technical

So today I went into hospital to have my pre operation check up, and surprise surprise they did not like my blood pressure. But what do you expect if you take the reading just after telling me all about the operation and how much pain I would be in afterwards.

They then took my blood pressure again after we had gone through all the millions of questions that I had to answer about my medical history, and yes my pressure had dropped. So I guess it looks like i'm on to have my nose drilled out and my tonsiles out.
