I've been working on the ICA on iPhone project recently and I had to move a new build from my development machine to my test server frequently. At first I tried RDP. But it is painfully slow to copy my binary to the test server for me. Then I tried ICA and it worked much better. The experience made me appreciate the efficiency of ICA more.
Seeing is believing, I've captured my experience in a video. If you use client drive mapping, you might be interested in checking out this video.
To start with, here is a short demo video of how to install AutoCAD Map3D 2009 on XenApp I created.
Would you rather watch a short instruction video than reading pages of instructions? Now you can. I've been working with Citrix support team to enhance the existing knowledge base web site with relevant videos.
Here is one example. We recently linked a "CitrixTip" video from our Citrix tip video site with the relevant knowledge base article. You can find the video link in the summary section of the knowledge base article. This video shows how to gather debug trace on Citrix XenApp servers.
Many thanks to the colleagues from our knowledge center team to make this happen.
Monitoring the Wanscaler This is the fouth video in the four part series of configuring a Wanscaler environment for FTP demonstrations. The first in this series is Configuring the W2K3 machine. The second is configuring the XPclient, third is configuring the Linktropy Wan simulator, and fourth is monitoring the Wanscaler
Configuring the Linktrophy. This is the third video in the four part series of configuring a Wanscaler environment for FTP demonstrations. The first in this series is Configuring the W2K3 machine.

Configuring the W2K3 server for FTP transfer. This is the first video in the four part series of configuring a WanScaler environment for FTP demonstrations.

This is the second video in a two part series showing CIFS acceleration over a WAN link using Wanscaler. This video will demonstrate the amount of CIFS optimization that occurs in a Wanscaler environment.
Here is a video demonstration of Microsoft CIFS acceleration over WanScaler. Equipment used for this demo were Microsoft W2K3 server, an XP client, and a Linktrophy Apposite WAN simulator.
Although, the demonstration seems very simplistic CIFS acceleration represents a milestone in WAN acceleration and data networking, in general. CIFS is the protocol that is used by Microsoft Servers and clients to exchange information. The protocol was originally designed to function over a LAN environment with a minimum of 10 Mbps throughput, half-duplex. As enterprises began expanding their data services to remote offices CIFS, designed for a LAN was being used over low bandwidth, high latency WAN's. Performance and end-user experience vary greatly in this enviornment, and the protocol provides a very high, inefficient overhead. With an accelerator between the remote and central office, TCP transmissions are optimized and thus the protocol is streamlined. Users can now experience LAN like performance while being thousand's of miles away from HQ.

In this video I share a closer view of the new site on the Citrix Community named Citrix VideoTips.
I also explain a bit of the web application interface as well as how this site will integrate and expand the other sites within the Citrix community.
If you have any questions feel free to post them here on comments or email me: gus.pinto@citrix.com

We're changing the way people use support forums, share their thoughts and seek help. Our new site enables people to capture their computer screen on the fly and share with others, participating on forums helping or being helped.
No more, "I'm having an issue with..." then a long description trying to explain what's going on. Instead just capture your screen pointing out your questions or issue and share with others over a video. 
Since talk is cheap I am done talking and I will show you a video where we review some of the latest progress on the site development.
Trust me on this... this site is going to change the way people use forums. I will share more on the site info as available...
Stay tuned for more.
