Microsoft this week released a free Windows Terminal Server client for Mac OS X. For those of you who use Macs but occasionally need to use Windows software (e.g. SIS) it's no longer necessary to go out and buy Citrix, you can run Windows Terminal Server on your server box and connect to it from your Macintosh.

From the blurb:

Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac allows you to connect to a Windows-based computer and work with programs and files on that computer from your Macintosh computer. To use Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac, you need network access and permissions to connect to a Windows-based computer running Terminal Services or Remote Desktop Services. These services are included with the following Windows products:

*       Windows XP Professional
*       Windows .NET Standard Server
*       Windows .NET Enterprise Server
*       Windows 2000 Server
*       Windows 2000 Advanced Server
*       Windows 2000 Datacenter Server
*       Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition
