    Hey, not sure where to submit this, but, there goes:

    V6
    Win7 Bootcamp and VM

    -- On 2010 13" MBP, scrolling is sketchy at best. The responsiveness from v5 is completely shot and gone and it often takes multiple swipes to get a page to scroll down. Frustrating to say the least when using Excel

    -- Using Remote Desktop in Win7 is a hassle. It appears that when in the Remote Desktop 'machine' and trying to login, the Shift button is not functioning on first press i.e. if typing in "hell_0" it will first appear as hell-o. You then have to back up, delete the dash, and then try typing again. Also, Copy/Paste do not work inside of Remote Desktop.

    Other than that, seems to be fairly stable. But, those items are a hassle and cause me to not want to work with it right now and go back to v5. I'll be doing that shortly.

    Hi, I'm on PD 6.0 Build 11990 and still having the copy/paste/shift problems when working with remote desktop from win7 as Shawn mentions above. This is a real hassle for me as I work with RDP every day. Hope you'll have a fix out soon or I'll have to go back to v5 as well.

    I am now on 6.0.11992 and there has been a change in the remote desktop copy/past/shift functionality. Now, instead of not working the first time it seems to work more randomly. Sometimes it works on the first try, sometimes it don't. I cross my fingers and hope this will be fixed in the next build.
