So I need them to RDP to an RDS Host or Windows 10 VM onsite.
Rule of them, if RDS works, you choose that. VDI is more overhead and more cost and exists solely for situations where the application is not written to Windows standards and not compatible with RDS. In theory, no one should ever need or want it, in reality, loads of terrible software is used constantly in the Windows world.
This is why VDI is unique to Windows. While any OS can do VDI, even mentioning VDI people just assume Windows because no other OS ecosystem needs it. So by and large, you just rule it out except for... when you can't.
It's like SAN. It's a terrible choice, until there is no other choice, then it's awesome.

When it comes to licensing, I accept no ambiguity.
Nor does Microsoft, so that's a good way to be.

Meaning, when someone says pick a number between 1 and 10, I see the only options as choosing a number from the following: 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.
The same, because that's what they said. Although I almost never hear that, normally it is from 1 to 10, which is inclusive of both 1 & 10, but between is exclusive of them.

That's so weird. I wonder how it grabbed that.

RDS works. That what they are using right now.
Everyone RDPs into a Terminal Server and is happy. -

If you highlight text and hit quote it uses that as the quote and not the actual post. I read sometimes by highlighting with my mouse as I'm reading. That's bitten me a few times on here.

Almost 100% of the time for me too. Especially if I have to look away..... I'll highlight the last few words I've read.

I knew that it did that, which is why I did it, but didn't realize that it didn't correct mark who said the quote in the first place. Seemed like a handy feature, guess it isn't, lol.
