Apple Users,
I have an iMac and would like to bring up a PC desktop remotely on my iMac on an internal network.
What tools have you used with success to do this?
EDIT: Forgot to mention I found this but have not tried it yet. Still doing research.

Work hard; increase production; prevent accidents, and be happy.
Microsoft has their own RDP client for MacOS, but there's also the F/OSS rdesktop executable (which I prefer, it's got a higher display refresh rate, probably double mstsc.exe's actually).
As for vice-versa, Apple has repackaged VNC for OSX and called it "Remote Desktop".
Finally, there's also the XWindows implementation in OSX you can use. -

MS just released a beta of a new version of RDP. It's universal (finally!) so it may perform better on Intel-based Macs.

I have been using CoRD
But will prob also give the official RDC another run soon as it's now universal binary.

This seems to work nicely.
Thanks for the link
