Client Virtualization Stage 1 - Evangelists

Any new solution will be successful only with the people selling the solution are passionate about the solution. They go to the extra mile.. and work closely with the customers and address their concerns in the early stage.. (How ever small it is..) They also need to come out with innovative solutions to address some issues..

With out them the solution / product will fail in the Market... In this post i am trying to mention the names of the early "Evangelists" of the Desktop Virtualization solution..
