"The rubber still isn't hitting the road in terms of good case studies or compelling reasons why users are going to fall over themselves." - itX's Greg Newham "We spend a lot of time trying to explain to customers what virtual desktop means because there's still a lot of confusion." - Lucida's Craig Taylor "We need to be able to present to our customers but their users seem to be the other firewall so we have to help customers put propositions to their users." - ICE Systems' Gary Spooner "The problem with virtual desktop is that it's rooted in the old world of the desktop. In the next 10 years that will change dramatically." - IBRS' Kevin McIsaac "Your biggest competitor is that people know they can get a new laptop; that's your grey market." - Regal IT's Mark Gluckman "Interoperability creates issues in some instances but that's where we as integrators can talk to clients about what they are and tailor products so we have a suite that works in any given client environment." - Datacom's Mark Mackaway "One of the big opportunities for virtual desktop is to smash the standard operating environment management piece once and for all." - Citrix's Rob Willis "With virtual desktop you can take a bunch of applications and stick them in a virtual machine - it might not do everything you want but you can cerainly get something up and running very quikcly."
