Mac O/S 10.6 and View connection

We have a few users who telework with Mac's of various types.  I have seen there is a delay from the moment they try to do anything until it shows up on the screen.  For instance, they launch IE the window comes up block by block, starting from the left.  Other users do not have any issues at all.

The only factor they have in common is they are all using the latest M$ RDP client for Mac (2.1.1).  Does anyone have any solutions?

Thanks,

James

The Mac clients at this time are forced to use RDP which pales in comparison to PCOIP from a performance standpoint.

Do we know if they plan on changing that "feature" in the near future?

No official word but from what I hear a Mac PCOIP client is very near.
