Just checked MS RD and it doesn't support OS X 10.7 and later.
Guess I'll look into LMI ignition or pro.
It is the classic issue of it will run, but it will also break at intervals, and you need to go to the terminal, run top, find the process ID, and kill the process so that it will run again. You can also just restart the Mac, if you can get it to restart with the hung process.
Having used all of the options recommended on my 'road' mac, I would go with the LMI ignition for ease of use.
