Citrix & Intel Announce Collaboration To Advance Desktop Virtualisation

Our Comments 

Intel in bed with Citrix? It will be interesting to find out what Microsoft makes out of all this. The "bare-metal hypervisor" initiative is a very enticing one given that it essentially bypasses the Operating System and returns to "thin client" roots (that will surely make Oracle, Sun and Google happy). Although it will be optimised for Intel's own platform, it will need to be compatible with AMD technology as well.
