Yes good question. I believe they are running the app on the server and using Terminal Services to access the app. It seemed strange to me but although they have decent workstations and network they claim to get much better performance when running on the server with Terminal Services.

>>I am considering purchasing a new server down the road for our FoxPro based application. Based on your experience with FoxPro do you believe our DB would run faster on a Dual processor 2.0+ ghz or faster machine with 4-5GB of ram or a Quad processor 700-800mhz with the same Ram. I haven't seen a good analysis on the benefits of dual vs quad with FoxPro and was wondering if you had seen any real experiences that might lead me in the right direction. Thanks
