(1) If you mean more than one user can logon to the system and use it at the
same time on a Windows XP Professional desktop machine - Not officially -
google for multiple remote desktop connections.

(2) Well - you could VPN in and connect to the Remote Desktop host.. But
"like VNC" - I would venture to say no.

UltraVNC definitely has some advantages.
