Microsoft Releases an Updated RDC 6.0 for Mac

Remote Desktop ClientMicrosoft’s Remote Desktop Client (RDC) allows you to connect to a remotely connect and control a Windows computer. Up until now, the RDC for Mac has not been updated for quite some time, running off Rosetta on the new Intel Macs.

Version 6.0 sports features I’ve been Jones’ing for for ages:

  • Universal Binary
    Runs natively on both Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macs.
  • Remote Desktop Protocol 6.0
    Provides better compatibility with Windows Vista, improved security features, and many other improvements.
  • Multiple Sessions
    Lets you connect to multiple Windows-based computers at the same time.
  • Improved User Experience
    Provides a true Mac experience and improved usability.
  • Improved Customization Options
    Lets you change application preferences, including keyboard shortcuts, while you are running a session. Changes take effect the next time that you connect.
  • Dynamic Screen Resizing
    Lets you resize your session window or switch to full-screen mode during a session.
  • Improved Printing Support
    Supports all configured printers on your Mac. No longer limited to PostScript printers.

Well, I guess technically it is only a Beta release. But, something is better than nothing.
