RemoteFX on Thinstuff XPVS does not do 3D acceleration. Hence it does not have to be running on a virtualized OS and requires no fancy GPU. Basically RemoteFX for Thinstuff XP/VS Terminal Services gives you the same features as Microsoft RemoteFX on Windows 2008R2 Remote Desktop Session Host (RemoteFX/RDSH).

    This feature will enable a wide range of future low cost ultrathin client devices to connect to Thinstuff XP/VS Server.

    Please also note that RemoteFX for Thinstuff Terminal Services requires a XP/VS Professional license to work.
