Ron,
If you look in the archives, I remember seeing conversations on justifying
RDP and also some comparisons of SEU vrs. RDP. We recently purchased some
licences and we paid about $790 per license. I hope you get to buy at
least a couple of licenses, the few lucky ones in my company that have it,
really like it.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] RDp Justification & Pricing Question
Sent by: wdsci-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx
I am preparing to ask for funding to get licenses for RDp for my
developers and need some information to help justify the costs.
I attended several sessions on RDp at COMMON in Orlando, and there were
some statements made about the potential productivity increases that can
be expected. Unfortunately, I didn't write any of that down, so if
someone can help me out with that I would be very appreciative.
I also remember hearing at COMMON that there was a 25% discount off of
each RDp user license if you traded in a green-screen developer license. I
have received a quote from our IBM business partner for a fee of $774 per
license which sounds a little high since I believe the list price is $896
for the full (non-trade in) license. Could somebody email me (privately
if you want) what you have paid for similar licenses? Our BP tells me
that this is the price he gets when running this through the configurator,
and he can find nothing referring to the trade-in discount.
Any other information that would help in justifying the cost would be
greatly appreciated!
