They can be fun... take me for example. I'm a Microsoft Certified *.* (at
least it feels that way), also been a Microsoft Certified Trainer for 21 years
now. You would *never* get me to use Windows 10 as a client OS if I have the
choice. The only Win10 client I barely tolerate is a gaming PC at home. I
prefer using Mac OS as a client, and I don't have any problems doing my work
on it, even managing Windows server based environments and the MS cloud. All I
need is a remote desktop client (Royal TS, but even MS's native "RDP client"
for Mac OS isn't too bad), browser (Google Chrome, Safari and MS Edge in my
case) and PowerShell. And yes, PowerShell is natively available for Mac OS. As
is Office, though Outlook on Mac OS is unfortunately sadly lacking when
compared to Outlook on Windows ("Quick steps" are a central part of my
workflow, unfortunatly not available on Outlook on Mac). But Wor
/Excel/PowerPoint/OneNote are more or less identical to their Windows based
counterparts.

At work we have Citrix, and I use published Apps ("XenApp") to get the
necessary apps onto Mac OS based desktop. The machine that delivers those apps
is Windows Server 2019, not Win10, so I can more or less tolerate it ;-)


Regards
Fermin
