In honor of the historic event, the Citrix Online division of Citrix Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CTXS), is offering a free 60-day trial to residents of the metro DC area.

They can even take a break to watch the festivities on TV. This is history, and we all want to share in it. Online remote access and conferencing technologies allow us to take time out without taking a day off.”
