I am looking for latency figures (from experience) of
deploying MS Word for approximately 8000 concurrent ( and
distributed ) users on a terminal server / app server.
The bandwidth available is aprrox. 2Mb.

Also is there a light weight version of MS Word or
plugins that can be used for integration with a Java
Applet ?

Thanks in advance.

You have asked this question in an end user NG. For a better chance of
attracting the attention of those who can answer it, post instead in
microsoft.public.word.setup.networking or microsoft.public.office.setup.

AFAIK, there is no "lite" version of Word/Office, but you can choose a
"Minimal" install, or perhaps the Word viewer
(http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...4C87-8732-48D5
-8689-AB826E7B8FDF&displaylang=en) would satisfy your needs.
