Muse back!

Amazingly, It Worked

This morning
with zero notice
I had to deliver a demo
over WebEx
using a VM
running on a Remote Desktop host
accessed through the VPN.

The only visible side effect of this less than ideal setup was the sluggish pointer response, which, when paired with pointer acceleration, made it look like I was mousing drunk.

I gotta say, after working at a place where I spent many meetings RDPing into a box that's RDPing into another box that's hosting a VM, working at a company that has all XP Home (no RDP) and no permanent PCs in the conference rooms sucks butt. Especially when your laptop sucks at the dock/undock dance. I may just scrape up some spare boxes for our conference rooms.

XP Home at work, sounds like pain. I thought you were moving on to *greener* pastures!
