Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

...(I can't believe I'm even saying this) Apple released a product that was as easy to use (and as free) as Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection.

I use it to connect to my PC at home from my OS X Box at work. It doesn't cost a dime and is problem free. I'd love a way to control my OS X Box at home as easily as I can control my XP Box.

Wake up Apple.

MS Remote Desktop Client - allows you to control only on PC. Apple Remote Desktop does a lot more - I have used to as a Sys.Admin for a number of years now - nice tool. I have found it hassle free and look forward to v2 and the new options it now offers.

Possibly Apple needs to release a Remote Desktop Lite - which would allow you to control a single Mac (like MS RDC) but one can always use VNC if that is all you want to do.
