"By providing a thin-client solution in which applications are
executed on
the server and
remotely displayed on the client, Terminal Server Edition enables a
whole
new segment of users to take advantage of the breadth of
Windows-based
applications available today."
Software piracy will be a thing of the past once Microsoft
implements this
strategy for selling and distributing software. Computers will be
little
more than dumb terminals that receive modules devlivered from a
company
server. Bill Gates has seen his window of opportunity and he's
going for
it.
But don't trash your conventional PC just yet, it will take a few
years to
implement.
