If you're not taking advantage of Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack, it's time to take a look.” - Paul Thurrott, Windows IT Pro Magazine April 30, 2008 “Organizations currently running Windows XP on their mobile PCs could save $605 a year per machine by replacing those systems with Windows Vista, using the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack and best practices to improve infrastructure optimization.” - Peter Galli, eWeek September, 2007 Yankee Group analyst Laura DiDio said in an interview that a comparable Microsoft offering could cost as little as one-third of what VMWare charges. “Until recently, there was not much competition,” she said. “Now what I'm hearing from customers is, they're glad to see Microsoft stepping up to the plate. They like VMWare's products, but they don't want to pay those high prices.” - Laura DiDio; Analyst, Yankee Group
