Re: Persona and Windows Roaming Profiles

Don't do both.  The idea is to use persona management tools such as VMware's persona management or something like ProfileUnity to do non-persistent floating desktops.  You then delete, refresh, and recompose the desktops without the need to worry about killing the users data or documents, etc.  You can even have user installed applications follow the users with something like ProfileUnity.  Then you don't have to patch the desktops you have.  I haven't had much luck with Roaming Profiles.  They usually kill the performance of a virtual desktop because they have to copy the users profile on logon every time.  With a persona management tool you can chose which parts of the persona you want to keep to reduce the login delay and bloat of the profile.
