Thinstall, XenApp… Ah, of course, ThinApp!

I stumbled across this interesting article over at the c1tr1xguru blog that talks about VMware’s fairly recent Thinstall acquisition undergoing a name change.

Thinstall has been in beta since VMware purchased Thinstall back in January this year under the guise of the Project North Star beta project.  This is now going to be called ThinApp when release to the general public.

It does seem like an interesting name given Citrix’s recent rebranding of Presentation Server to become XenApp, but I’m sure this never entered the head of VMware.
