Actually, that's not quite true. If you're using the right versions
(Citrix addon or XP..XP I think) of terminal server you get drive
mapping. This is _really_ neat if the server has been setup with
it's %SystemDrive% as E: so that C: and D: are free to be the mapped
client drives. Even with the oldest versions you get printer and COM:
port mapping, I think I've heard of somebody using virtual COM: ports
to transfer files (or more likely it was real COM ports at the client
end and they were searching for a virtual null modem cable).
