Re: New to TS 2003 - Application launching



Thank you, thank you! It looks good with ths WTSPortal so far. I am just
not too fond of the lack of more information on the main pages for the
product. I just don't understand the $349 you stated - I know about the
server piece - is there no CAL? I am on the web site right now. Are you
saying with TS 2003 and WTSPortal, I can publish about 3-5 applications for
20-30 of my users?
