So we just announced the intent to acquire Kidaro, a desktop virtualization vendor based in Silicon Valley and with R&D in Israel. Kidaro entered the desktop virtualization management market nearly 17 months ago with their Kidaro Managed Workspace product.

Hey Paris: if you're having an issue using a device in Windows Vista that previously worked in Windows XP, I'd suggest directing your question to one of our public newsgroups to see if someone has already experienced the same issue: http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.mspx. Hope this helps.

Hi Nick,

This kind of messages are great for us to know what's happening in your mindset.

Everything is moving toward virtualisation and virtualisation tools, but wat about virtual search ? Video's, sounds and noices are telling much more then written words, but how can i find them back into the virtual world?

Seeing forward the new ideas about this ;-)

This is dandy and all, but the reason it's in such a tiny percent of the marketplace is easy enough to grasp: the leap from good theory to good practice has yet to be achieved. As a system admin for a company, I would love nothing more than to have all of the users' data and programs in a nice, easy to administer and backup central location. However, getting into things opens a giant can of monster worms.

How do I register their software? How do I explain to Adobe that I want a software license from them for a copy of Photoshop that will be running on multiple computers but only for one user? (More importantly, how do I convince Adobe not to charge me for six licenses for that one user?) What software will behave itself when run in this manner, and what software will go haywire?

Until this technology is developed enough to be ninety-percent automated by wizards and devoid of incompatibilities, I very much doubt you'll see it make headway into the market. I want to see it succeed, because it's a fantastic idea, but I think you'll have a hard time finding many early adopters.

I see that there are a number of new things about Windows Vista you guys are proud of - but could you please deal with the still hanging-loose thread that is filled with complaints about the apparent impossibility (that is given no warning) of changing Windows Vista's operating language in a laptop bought with Windows Basic in a foreign country. Understood it is possible to download language packs if you have Windows Ultimate on that laptop - but I'm guessing there are a good deal (like mine) that come with inferior versions.

See the thread - Customizing Your Language Locale in Windows Vista, started in July 19th 2006 and still not a jot less relevant today it seems to me (has near two years not been anough to resolve this problem?!).

If indeed a fix has come about for this prob - I apologise for my accusations; but no mention of it is to be found as far as I can see.
