VMware Related Article from http://www.rtfm-ed.co.uk/ -
SVMotion is a VI 2.5 client plugin (the FIRST released, third-party plugin in fact) that extends the client’s functionality by providing an integrated, graphical tool that can be used to invoke storage VMotion (SVMotion) operations. This plugin is not supported by VMware. In fact, the plugin is not anywhere close to supported by VMware because it is the result of a two-week dive into the inner-workings of the VI client libraries with popular reflection tools (reverse-engineering). lost creations is working on a white paper that describes how to build VI plugins.”

Citrix Related Article from http://www.brianmadden.com/
Past years, from Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server Edition timeframe, there is always a discussion about the benefits Citrix XenApp is adding to the Microsoft Terminal Services platform. This discussion is good!
Besides the difference in features between the several solutions there should (also!) be a discussion about the vendors vision of desktop and application delivery. Citrix released a document which describes the feature differences between Windows Server 2003 TS, Windows Server 2008 and Citrix XenApp.
