Since there is no 'server' edition of XP, it can only handle one
'client' at a time, and which controls the desktop (a la VNC). Now
Win2k can run a true "terminal server" with multiple clients (more
like LTSP). Incidentally, with Citrix's add-on, your client can be a

286 w/ 2 MB RAM and a VGA card (about the only good use for a 286
now).
