I wish they didn't ban my account. Yes, I will echo this event until let burns to the low burning hellpits of drama.
Does anyone know the price of this out of beta?
Only 2500 of these, so I'm on board.
Not released yet, looks like they're trialing it for potential interest before announcing a price.
Running geekbench
Looks like they are using a product from VMWare called Horizon Suite. Interesting.

Sweet it hit beta! I'm down for this.
Not bad, not bad.
it even supports audio throughput (once enabled in services) and its great quality.
Not working for me
I tried the IP and URL but it won't connect via RDP. It pings though, does it just take a while to be set up?
you need to use vmware horizon client
https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/info/slug/desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_horizon_clients/3_0#win64
You can open it directly from within your browser as well. No need for 3rd party apps.
First impressions - the desktop is very speedy, this vmware clients feels much faster than rdp.
@deadbeef works fine here using Chrome on Linux
Does not work here (on chrome)
I can't even ping mine
Too bad they don't develop everything themselves.
Thanks @tommy, probably the Beta Gods were unfavorable to my try
Instant setup. Browser default language is French. VMware Horizontal client for OS X is available. I'm in CA and it loads fast from OVH DC. IP 5.196.0.0/16 OVH SAS
Just tested, working good, download speed 50MB/s, i guess they're using Gigabit port.
Thanks. Works fine with that. Performance is awesome.
got mine.. works great..Thanks!
