I have the error reset key mapped to Left Control, but yes, I have seen
some problems with it not working. Twice in the past week I've had to
close a session and cancel the job because the key just seemed to quit
working.

Other issues I've seen:

I have one session now that just won't start; not sure why.

Minor annoyance, but anytime I use my mouse to switch to a session by
clicking on it, the cursor immediately jumps to wherever my pointer was
in the window.

Icons are different - couldn't IBM at least include the same icons?
Users hate change.

And finally, it takes forever for a session to start. To the point that
the screen is blank with no visual feedback for several seconds before
the session is finally displayed. Granted, I am running from a network
share, but the performance was similar when I tested locally.

All of this put together makes me greatly hesitate implementing this for
the user community.

Thanks
Bob

Has anyone else been trying out the new java-based Access Client
Solutions? I'm not sure it's quite ready for prime-time yet (unless
you're on a Mac, i.e. Jon Paris!)



I've been using it as my primary emulator for the past week, and there's
enough differences/annoyances that I don't think I want to push it out
to my users quite yet.



Just curious what experiences others are having?
