Microsoft, Citrix keep code deal alive
C|Net | at | by Mike
Citrix's software allows corporations to port Windows and other operating systems to "thin clients" over a network. It works on top of Microsoft's Window Terminal Services (WTS) product, which is part of Windows 2000. Citrix has posted strong financial results in the past few quarters, thanks in part to its relationship with Microsoft. But rumors have surfaced that Microsoft might try to find a way around using Citrix's technology in the future, either by buying a start-up or developing its own version. Thursday's announcement makes that seem even likelier.
