Re: Question Regarding a Managed Desktop Environment

[Todd Clementz <clementz.7 () OSU EDU>]

We use a managed desktop environment for our student population, but not the

their desktops, but on the student side of things it has been great.  We
link our support site directly to the desktop for easy access.
