What about ssh? VNC? RDP?


What about them?


Exactly.

Are they better?, worse?, what? than telnet?


Well, VNC and RDP are *different* from telnet, like http is different from ftp. Thus, there is no "better or worse".

Regarding ssh: this was the first entry when I Googled "ssh vs. telnet": http://blogs.sun.com/JayzSpeak/entry/telnet_vs_ssh

As usual, Wikipedia gives a good overview:
