Apparantly, Gael Duval has leaked the first bits of information concerning his Ulteo project to the LXF magazine. "You can't fail to notice that in the screenshot he sent us, Ulteo is running inside a web browser. What's more, the screenshot also shows Duval creating a presentation on the 'Ulteo Connected Desktop'. Ulteo is going to be hosted on Duval's own servers, enabling users to connect to their own desktop from anywhere in the world. [...] The system administration and upgrades will be handled at the server end, as too will application installation. [...] Anyone with a browser will be able to use Ulteo - indeed, Ulteo is going to need a broadband connection to work - as the client will only require Java."

No, I wouldn't. Furthermore, installing and OS in order to run an OS, how ridiculous is that? It's like buying a bag for carrying your other bag.
I already imagined Ulteo to be a big flop months ago. Now I have the final proof that Duval is creating a big flop and that he is a dreamer who lost touch with reality. Two thumbs down.
