Is the Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 Administration Tools Pack the only way to install the Remote Desktops MMC add-in on Vista/Win7 x64 workstations?
Are there any better, low cost alternatives?

the problem is the RD MMC add-in uses the /console switch for console connections, this has been superseded by /admin in later versions of windows though, so it doesn't really work any more
I've been successfully using RD Tabs, and a commercial product from vissionapp to fill this need for me, both seem to work very well for what I need
