This is true. The nice thing about Citrix is that it runs on a 
completely different machine, and so no matter the load on the other 
box, the only real stress on the client is the single Citrix app (there 
are times, however, when the overhead of caching images from the session 
can be rather intensive; I tend to shy away from running too many 
streaming media apps in Citrix for this very reason). Also, some apps 
simply do not like to run (or install, as is usually the case) in a 
terminal session.
