Windows Terminal Services case study.

Microsoft SoftGrid (formerly Softricity) delivers application virtualisation for Windows workstations and Windows Terminal Services servers. Virtualised applications are on-demand streamed to client PCs where they are executed. Applications are not installed on the client – so there is no impact on the host operating system or other applications. Every key application component, as well as Windows Services is virtualised, so application conflicts are eliminated. Please see http://www.softricity.com/ for further details. Also see an educational case study.
