Line 9:
Workspace Virtualization runs directly on the client computer hardware whereas Desktop Virtualization in many cases runs on a remote computer somewhere over a corporate [[Local area network|LAN]]/[[Wide area network|WAN]] or over the Internet (called Hosted Desktop Virtualization).
In other cases Desktop Virtualization can be run on the client directly through a [[virtual machine]] environment such as [[VMware Workstation]],[[VirtualBox]] or Thincast Workstation. Because the applications in a Desktop Virtualization environment run at a different ___location, on a remote machine or in a local virtual machine, and technology simply offers a way to present the graphics interface locally using technologies such as Remote Desktop. As a result, the graphics system is much slower and access to local data services such as [[Universal Serial Bus|USB]] or [[IEEE 1394 interface|FireWire]]-connected cameras, scanners, & hard drives is much slower. Workspace virtualization, on the other hand, offers the advantage that the amount of time required to move from one client computer to another is small because applications, settings and data are stored locally on the client. When it comes to system resources, Workspace Virtualization requires fewer resources than Desktop Virtualization because it doesn't contain a complete copy of the operating system running in a virtualization environment.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://virtualizationreview.com/articles/2009/09/01/workspace-virtualization-grows-up.aspx|title=Workspace Virtualization Grows up -}}</ref>
