Terminal Services is Microsoft’s take on server centric computing, which allows individual users to access network resources easily.


Based on the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Terminal Services was first introduced in Windows NT 4.0 (Terminal Server Edition). The products Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Windows 2000 Datacenter Server and Windows Server 2003 have introduced several improvements and new features. Microsoft used Terminal Services in Windows XP for the Remote Assistance feature. Windows XP (Professional Edition only) includes a single-user Terminal License using the Remote Desktop feature.
Remote Desktop Connection for Windows

Microsoft provides the client software Remote Desktop Connection (formerly called Terminal Services Client), available for most 32-bit versions of their Windows operating systems and Apple’s Mac OS X, that allows a user to connect to a server running Terminal Services. Third-party developers have created client software for other platforms, including the open source rdesktop client for common Unix platforms. There are also much older computer terminal systems that were in use well before Terminal Services. Terminal Services is just one of the many ways in which clients can access a central server’s resources.

I would love to hear what you have to say and I know there are dozens of comment spam plug-ins available for WordPress, but I am not in the mood to deal with it. This site does not generate much traffic, it is here to amuse me and hopefully others. Persons that feel that they will increase there page rank by spamming others are mistaken and are not aware of how page ranking works. I wish them all cancer of the face.

My first site was TheBazil.com and that was fun for a bit; it started as a general gadget, toy and wireless website. I then realized that it would be best to narrow down the exact theme of the site, so I geared it towards wireless phones and industry news. Traffic really started to pick up but I knew the only way to really keep traffic was to get a real domain.

That is where Mobile Wireless News.com started; it was a very strong domain that had the intentions of the site perfectly inline. Mobile Wireless News.com is doing quite well and I started to customize the themes to get what I want, well almost. I now know that I have NO sense of design or layout. Fuck it.

My intentions for this site are to be general discussion and random thoughts. I am not going to spend time trying to create themes for this site, I will leave that to people who know what they are they are doing and have awesome imaginations.

My eyes had wandered off my path of travel and was not looking where I was going while entering the elevator. Then from below I hear “EXCUSE ME” from this squeaky little voice. If my reflexes had lagged one bit more then they did she would have gotten a face full of my junk and I would have smashed my face on the tile floor.

Yeah explain that to your co-workers. “What happen to your face?”, “Oh, yeah I tripped over a midget walking into the elevator and smashed my chin on the tile.” yeah that will go over well
