|  |  |  | The Remote Desktop client allows computers to connect to Microsoft Windows XP Pro, 2000 Server (with Terminal Services), or Windows 2003 servers for remote management and operability of those systems. It allows the user to fully use the remote computer from any location - as long as both machines are online and remote desktop has been enabled on the Windows host.

From Pixel32 website:
"After 2 weeks of hard work, patches to compiler and complete rewrite of x86 assembly to PowerPC code, Pixel32 feels pretty good on PPC platforms. I'm still waiting for some MorphOS compiler patches and when I get them I will release Pixel32 v1.0 RC3 public demo for following platforms: Windows, BeOS/Zeta, Linux/x86, Linux/PPC, MorphOS and Mac OS X. Happy New Year 2005 again!"

Further according to ZDNet...
Klaus Knopper, the founder of Linux Live CD Knoppix, said the project will not be able to continue as public and open, downloadable software if the patent directive is passed.
"No money that I could charge for Knoppix would allow me to pay for the upcoming lawsuits or patent claims of companies who sue me for violation of about 900 software patents that are possibly used in the public Debian Linux software," said Knopper.

|  |  |  | "Those who value freedom and competition have received two nice Christmas gifts the week before Christmas. First, new EU member Poland does not allow the introduction of innovation- and job-killer software patents through the diplomatic back-door. And now the European Court decides that Microsoft should not get another four years to further harm its competition" says Georg Greve, President of the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE).

The mayor of Munich, Christian Ude, has spoken out again and welcomes the decision by the EU Council to take more time for its decision on software patents. The Linux migration by the Munich city administration is one of the most observed IT projects in the world. Since the groundbreaking decision to embark on that project, Mr. Ude is relatively well-known in IT circles worldwide (if not by his name, then at least for the migration project).
