Hi Manuel,

thank you very very much.

The hospital is a customer from us who wants to have this
32bit-possibility for the "MagicWEB"-application. I thought never of this
possibility that the Citrix-server could have a problem with 32bit.

But now I can't understand the problem of this application. The thinclient
connects via PXES and ICA-Client (9.02) to an Windows-based
Citrix-Cluster. On Friday a fatclient get damaged and replaced by a
thinclient. After that my customer recognized that the "MagicWEB" want to
have this "famous" 32bit.

What about you in your hospital?
How do you watch the roentgen pictures?

Greetings
Stephan
