RDP for the Mac
Mac OS X doesn't come with an RDP client, but one is needed to use the
Windows images on the VCL.
Microsoft provides a client, go to microsoft.com and search for
Mac rdp client
There are several versions -
Remote Desktop Connection Client 1.0.3 for Mac
Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac 2 (Beta 3)
Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac 2
I used to use the first on the list, and recently moved to the last
one on the list, just because it is several years newer (it was
published 7/1/2008.)
It has a new "feature" which may upset users - it checks the image
when the connection is being made and opens a warning dialog box if the
image uses a Windows OS "older than Vista".
As far as I can see, just click that it is ok and there is no problem.
But it is one more minor item to tell Mac users about.
