Zusammenfassung:	A mechanism is provided for moving a stored user desktop image including an operating system and applications between data centers based upon the user's location. The user desktop image can be moved manually by the user or administrator, or automatically moved based on use data contained in the user state. In one embodiment, the user can indicate plans to travel from their home location. Based on this information the system determines an appropriate data center for the user desktop image to be located. In another embodiment, the system may select a data center providing a desired bandwidth for the user based on the user's indicated location. An administrator may provide additional parameters that can be used to determine location of the user desktop image. In a further embodiment the system may use information contained in the user desktop image to determine a location for the user desktop image information.
