  • adonde puede comprar las cajitas que me conectan al servidor

  • But how is it possible to add so many monitors to one cpu? Wouldn't it need that many HDMI/vga ports? And that would in turn require the cpu to have multiple entry to mid range graphics card or one high end graphics card with several ports

  • Anne has a very perfect world class size lol.

  • I wonder if stations can be created without thin-clients, i mean, just by using usb-hubs and connecting monitors keyboards and mouses directly to it. Will WMS detect it as stations?? I know the normal connection is using thin-clients (or zero clients).

  • WHO CAN HELP ME BY SENDING WIN MULTIPOINT 2011 OS?

  • Really looking to buy it.

    Will the MP 2012 R2 version be launched this year together with all R2s?

  • I was wondering the same thing. They didn't show any of the extra hardware needed to set up those stations. Without looking it requirements, it's probably safe to say the system needs to be maxed out on hardware specs to accomplish this seamlessly.

  • Check out the WMS 2012 Virtual Desktops demo video on this channel

  • Check out the WMS 2012 Deployment demo video on this channel

  • There is a windows 7 Hack that replaces the termsrv.dll file so that more than one user can remote desktop into the pc. Kinda like server edition. But each would need a client terminal.

  • i want some thing like this but runs the full windows OS like win 7 any 1 have ideas ?

  • If I was to use a 8 Core AMD processor in combination with 16GB of ram and a fast SSD would that be enough to support 20 clients at once? There will be USB to DSUB "zero clients" to hook up monitor, keyboard and mouse, so no heavy duty dedicated graphics card will be necessary right?

  • @msmultipoint how many multipoints could I run on a Core i5 2500 and 4gb ram?

  • This video doesn't show us how i can use 3-5 monitors in low-cost PC…

  • @TheGregoryPro Yes, that's essentially true. When you use a computer with MultiPoint Server, you are splitting up the resources across all the different users. That means you need to buy a slightly more powerful computer than a standalone one.

  • @TheGregoryPro It would depend on the hardware of your host PC. The premium software supports up to 20 users sharing 1 pc, on 20 different sessions, but obviously you would need a fairly high end CPU to support that, since the computing power is split up among so many sessions. But, when the correct hardware configuration is used, then you can typically get the same amount of use at a session as you would with a regular PC experience.

  • I mean, of course I can just control my regular desktop with a second keyboard and mouse (or a remote) from bed- but the kb and mouse still have my 2 desktop monitors- as well as the TV to move between. It'd be way better if the tv could be running a separate console session. Just a thought

  • Implement this into workstation versions of windows- so that in my room I could have my desktop the way it is, and then have another 'console' basically, connected to a tv w/ remote etc… for watching videos while I'm in bed…
