In a virtualized world, where users can get to their desktops and applications from practically any location or device, you need to leverage "user profile" technology to ensure users get a consistent experience every time. When users log on to their virtual desktop or launch a virtual application, they want to see everything just as they left it, with their own personal settings, shortcuts, toolbars, templates, desktop wallpapers and favorites. The more complex and varied the user access scenarios, the more challenging it becomes for IT to manage these user profiles.
User Profile Manager, available today as a Tech Preview, provides an easy, reliable, high-performance way to manage user personalization settings in Windows environments. It requires minimal administration, support and infrastructure, while providing users with fast logon and logout.

We were rocking out to AC/DC playing over ICA using Apollo, an YouTube video with audio and a phenomenal quality. Video taken on Geek Speak Lounge.
Oh Hail Apollo!
