- klipt 7y agoWhy do those files have to be transferred to your home? Can't you use ssh/remote desktop to connect to your office desktop and work with them there?

- dragonwriter 7y ago> AutoCAD over local NFS chokes, I can't imagine trying to run it over VDI. VDI lets the “desktop” actually running the software potentially be more local to the storage than local NFS, even though both are more distant from the end-user, so I don't see the problem.

- rsynnott 7y agoI haven't had an office desktop in around a decade. I have a laptop which I'm currently using at home.
