We've Come a Long Way, Baby!

Fourteen years ago I was working for a company developing a network-based multi-user games. One of the guys on our team was a graphic artist creating 3D objects and environments for our games using 3D Studio. With such applications you need lots of RAM, and I still remember how amazed I was that his computer had 64 MB. The most memory I had seen on a PC before that was 16 MB, and even that seemed like a lot.

Well thanks to Microsoft's Mark Russinovich we now get to see what Task Manager looks like on a computer equipped with 2 Tera Bytes - 2,046,965 MB - 31,984 times more memory than that graphic workstation from 14 years ago.
BTW note that this server also has 64 cores.

I wonder how many Terminal Server sessions PowerTerm WebConnect on Windows Server 2008 x64 can load on that server.

Ericom at BriForum Video

Ericom Software was a sponsor of the recent BriForum conference, the independent industry event about Desktop and Application Virtualization. At BriForum we presented PowerTerm WebConnect, our presentation and desktop virtualization product which provides a unified solution for Terminal Services (SBC), Desktop Virtualization (VDI) and Blade PCs. Brian Madden, the man behind BriForum, has published a video in which he interviews James Lui, our Director of Technical Services, and Stuart Robinson, Director of Strategic Marketing at Teradici, at the Ericom both at BriForum. In this video Brian, James and Stuart discuss the benefits of a unified solution for remote desktop and application access and show the joint Teradici / Ericom solution, which provides the best user experience for remote access bar none.
