Seamless in Windows
There is little reason to open a program from a remote windows machine, but one: The MS Office Suite.
The easiest way I found for opening a windows programm on a remote Computer seamless (!) is to use the Remote App Tool. It will help you to create a rdp file for the program, you like to run remotely.
Create a shortcut and e.g. for Outlook 2010 fill into for Path, VPath and IconPath the same string:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.EXE
Start a virtual machine with windows and process the rdp file in it.
Keep in Mind, that you only can open ONE session for ONE computer at the same time!
This is not comparably to X11 and Linux, where you can connect to multiple machines at once ;-)
That's it. Just works.
