"Works but Frequently Disconnects"
Version: Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection 2.1.1
Pros
Great idea, and great tool for a Mac.
Cons
It disconnects all the time. So it makes working remotely really frustrating. This product could do with an overhaul...
Summary
Works infrequently, disconnects and needs some kind of update to make it more stable.

"Works most of the time"
Version: Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection 2.1.1
Pros
Pretty simple, does what it suppose to, feels like you'e really working on that pc machine remotely. Make sure to launch in full screen mode, had some issues working in other size window sessions.
Cons
Hangs up - sometimes from the very start of the remote session and you have to disconnect and reconnect again. For me only works on my Mac Air in 32 bit mode - can't work it on 64 bit mode. Have had it crash when disconnecting from the machine prompting the mac to do a 'report crash' window thing.
Summary
Overall, works great when it does work, wish it worked in 64 bit mode so I don't have to restart to 32 bit when ever I want to use it to get to my work laptop remotely.

"Works, but frequently disconnects"
Version: Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection 2.1.1
Pros
Works very well
Keyboard Mapping
Allows full-screen without dock
Flexible Sound optionsCons
DIsconnects frequently
Summary
I like if very much, except for the frequent disconnects. I also use an XP laptop using the windows version of the remote desktop software to the same remote computer, and never get these disconnects. No indication from the remote computer that it's doing the disconnect either. I'm currently using version 2.0.1.
