Hi there,
Our IT people are looking at running some general computer lab
applications and some specialised applications using Citrix next year.
Our labs currently run on a Novell network and we have software such as
Zoomtext linked to students accounts using the Novel Application
Launcher, "the NAL" as the IT types call it. This works really well as
students can access zoomtext from any PC, in any lab, at any time.
But as we all know the only constant is "change" and the IT people are
looking at CITRIX as an answer to some of there problems. This is also
on top of everything going over to Win XP.
It would be interesting to hear from anyone whose institution has been
through this process or may be about to go through it.
Thanks in advance
Trevor
