• Employees will switch between their virtualised personal and corporate desktops as desired, boosting satisfaction, productivity and security.
• Employees will receive the benefits of the latest and greatest corporate desktop without the struggle to install operating system patches and new versions of applications. One system image is maintained in the data centre, and it's delivered to users whether they are in the office or elsewhere.

"Citrix and Intel have worked together to lead the development of the
open source industry standard Xen hypervisor, which has brought an
entirely new level of openness, security and scale to the server
virtualization industry,” said N Louis Shipley, group VP and general manager, XenServer product group at Citrix Systems.
"Extending that
collaboration to the client will enable our Citrix Delivery Center
infrastructure to communicate directly with millions of Intel-based
devices, changing the game in desktop virtualization in a way that
benefits customers of both companies," he added.
Citrix expects the first phase of Project Independence - which will include the new hypervisor - to be delivered in the second half of 2009.
