Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac Released !

image Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac 2 features a redesigned user interface, improved customization options, and the ability to connect to multiple Windows-based computers at the same time. The following table lists the latest improvements to Remote Desktop Connection.

  • Universal binary - Runs on both Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macs.
  • User interface and menu bar - Simplifies the connection window and expands the menu bar to include menus for common tasks (File, Edit, View, and Help). Application preferences are now located on the RDC menu.
  • Remote Desktop Protocol 6.0 - Improves performance and compatibility with Windows Vista.
  • Multiple sessions - Connects to multiple computers when you save a connection file for each computer. Use the new File menu to open new, saved, and previously opened connections and to manage all changes to connection files.
  • Better customization than Remote Desktop Connection 1.0 - Accepts changes to application preferences, such as keyboard shortcuts, during a Remote Desktop session. Changes take effect the next time that you connect.
  • Automatic reconnection - Reestablishes a remote session when the network connection is lost.
  • Screen sizing options - Runs the Remote Desktop session in a resizable window or in full-screen mode.
  • Printing - Prints your Windows-based documents to any printer that is connected to the Macintosh computer.
  • Network Level Authentication - Verifies the identity of the Windows-based computer before establishing a Remote Desktop connection. You can select this option when you connect to a computer that is running Windows Vista. Network Level Authentication is more secure than authentication options in earlier versions of Windows.
  • Wide-screen resolution - Provides settings for improved resolution on wide-screen displays.
  • Server console sessions - Speeds login when you specify "console" as part of the computer name.
