Cnet reports that Smart Display, the technology for remote controlling your computer via WiFi and a portable LCD touchscreen, is being abandoned by microsoft. The reason for this is supposedly that the devices recieved a cold reception as the use of the devices locked up use of the workstation.
Quote from the article:
"The full version of Terminal Server, the underlying technology behind the remote control, has special protection to stop multiple users from updating the registry or overwriting files in ways that interfere with each other, but Microsoft did not include that with its Smart Display software."
