NX is IMHO the most complete. With it you are able to start a whole remote gnome/kde session, and have it displayed on your local box (yes, including the splash screen :)), as well as connect to remote vnc and rdp servers (like win XP or win 2000/2003 terminal server). On their page (http://www.nomachine.com) there is a "test drive" (requires free registration), so you can try it (the sessions you see run on one of their test servers).
