Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively recommending the Microsoft Remote Desktop app for connecting to lab VMs from a Chromebook, with only brief mention of alternatives. The instructions and screenshots focus solely on the Microsoft tool, and there is no guidance or example for using Linux-native or open-source RDP clients. Additionally, the process for connecting to Windows VMs is described as simpler than for Linux VMs, and Linux connection options (SSH, RDP) are mentioned only in passing, without detailed steps or parity in explanation.
Recommendations
- Include step-by-step instructions for connecting to both Windows and Linux VMs, with equal detail.
- Provide examples and screenshots for using open-source or Linux-native RDP clients (e.g., Remmina, FreeRDP, KRDC) on Chromebook or Linux environments.
- List alternative RDP clients in the main instructions, not just in a note, and clarify their pros/cons and configuration requirements.
- Ensure that connection instructions for Linux VMs (including SSH and RDP) are as detailed and prominent as those for Windows VMs.
- Add troubleshooting tips specific to Linux VMs and non-Microsoft RDP clients.
