The document discusses VMware's product direction and focus on the future. It outlines VMware's vision of a "Virtual Datacenter OS" that will deliver an internal cloud through technologies like vCompute, vStorage, vNetwork and management solutions. It also discusses initiatives around vCloud to federate internal and external clouds, and addressing the "desktop dilemma" through solutions like VMware View that deliver virtual desktops to follow the user across devices.

IT Needs To Bring Down End Users Want Their
Costs, but… Desktop To Follow Them
Thick or Thin? Want info to be accessible
anywhere, anytime
Mobile or Not?
Don’t want info locked up
Windows or Mac? in a single device
But don’t want to give
up richness
