VDI is the Virtual desktop offering by VMware, it was interesting in that it was not a technical presentation but a business one.<\/p>\n

It talked about seven things that cause VDI implementations to fail, they were not technical in nature.<\/p>\n

  1. Treating th Users as VIP’s or everyone else<\/li>\n
  2. Thinking Server & desktop virtualization is the same<\/li>\n
  3. Love of Technology<\/li>\n

  5. Indulgence<\/li>\n
  6. Impatience<\/li>\n
