SWV is on our critical path
SWV is on our critical path for deployment of a 64-bit-only Windows 7 image, which we are planning to start in December. Glad to hear that it's finally on its way.
Is it possible to get into
Is it possible to get into the beta testing as a private user?
PS: Will the new version be also free for personal use?
As we in our company are
As we in our company are planning to use virtualization of applications for Windows XP and Windows 7 I would like to try it out. For now we are using Citrix application profiler for streaming application but I would like to try out some alternatives before deciding. And a good way is to try it out in private and get some experience and the feel of it.
