    I see that there is a RDC client for mac's to join windows networks. Has anybody used it and is it good/bad/indifferent. I need to connect to a windows machine 50% of the time, just wondering if this will do the job and allow me to use a mac?

    i use it every day in some capacity, it works great on a lan and also from my bb connection at home can be a little flaky on a 3g connection, allowing me to do all kinds of evil windoze tasks from my beautiful macs, well worth using in my view

    I use it myself quite a bit, works a charm.

    It's a small download for the mac, and very easy to set up. I think XP allows it by default for admin accounts, so all you have to to is make sure the firewall lets it through.
