Hi. I haven't been fortunate enough to be able to test beta or RC
versions of Vista. I just want to know what kind of new features will
be available with Vista's Remote Desktop implementation. I believe it
will be RDP 6.0.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Desktop_Protocol

Does anyone who has RC1 use/confirm any of these features in remote desktop?

(1) ClearType anti-aliasing
(2) 24-bit color out-of-box w/o registry hack
(3) Resolutions above 1600x1200 (specifically 2560x1600)
(4) Multiple monitors



Thanks!
 
I can confirm the following in Windows Vista RC1 (5600):

(1) ClearType works even for XP RDP clients
(2) Yes, 24-bit color out of box
(3) Still stuck at 1600x1200 for XP RDP clients -- but can go to 2560x1600
if you connect from a Vista RDP client
(4) (don't have multiple monitors to check)
