Further to this, your Windows XP box will have shipped with the server 
software to make this work. Look at the remote tab in the System control 
panel.

rdesktop rocks, sound even works.

If this is for anything but casual use, and particularly over a slow
network, Citrix works a treat.  There's a Linux client, though it's
not easy to find on their web site.  I used it while in Sydney to
access my work systems in London from a very underpowered laptop.
Worked a treat!

No, Democracy is not identical with majority rule. Democracy
is a State which recognizes the subjection of the minority
to the majority, that is, an organization for the systematic
use of force by one class against the other, by one part of
the population against another.

simple approach  tightvnc.org  Install a server on the Windows machine
and access from Linux.

Another approach is rdesktop which is a true remote desktop, two
separate environments for screen and remote connection.
