Well, right here:

"You must install TS Web Access on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008."

With stackvm you don't have to install anything, no plugins, not even flash and you don't need a modern web browser.

We're making our software work in all the browsers, even as old IE as 5.5.

OK, didn't see that one. But technically it should be possible to do that(i.e., pure web rendering through JS) for TS as well.

What I meant to ask was - how does it compare using VNC against RDP. Probably you have through and rejected RDP, so was curious to know the technical details. (xrdp for Linux exists as well)

To be honest, we haven't looked at RDP yet. We're been building everything on top of VNC. We did not look because we didn't have the necessary libraries written like node-bufferlist (for easy binary protocol parsing) and dnode (for sending stuff around easily). But now that we have, we'll soon look into RDP.
