That's possible, Brian.  My particular test is an underpowered Asus
netbook.  However, in the case of RDP versus SPICE, RDP was surprisingly
faster and we could measure the fourfold increase in data being sent by
SPICE - an issue we are tracking with the SPICE devs - in the middle of
compiling the SPICE wireshark dissector right now in fact!

However, the same netbook in Linux gives lightning fast performance.  We
are also getting complaints from virtually all our Windows users some of
whom have relatively high powered desktops and graphics cards.  Thanks -
