Overview: In the upper right you see the VMs I used to look at SP1. These VMs were running on a physical system with a professional-class graphics card that was used to support the new RemoteFX display features.
Remote Desktop Connection Manager: Virtual Machines that are managed by the Connection Manager must be Aero capable to use the RemoteFX features including advanced graphics and advanced USB redirection.
Virtual Machine Pool: Here you see a couple of the VMs I created for remote use. In a production environment there would be a much larger number of systems here. However, even this small number is enough for IT managers who want to get an idea of the new features that are available in the SP1 beta.
