I've had mixed results with this, recent versions of Adobe in particular gave me trouble.

I've been meaning to try WinBoat, but it's based on the same underlying technology (docker+RDP) so I'm guessing I'll hit the same bugs. I was thinking maybe i could alter the code to launch a different RDP client instead of the default.

Still, if you just need Office, it's a much more integrated setup than you can easily achieve with VMs.
