There's an NT/2k Terminal Services client called RDesktop available now.
There's also a 3rd party patch for 16bit color support. It's incredibly
fast and small. I makes emulating windows basically useless.
What you do is make your employer buy a 2k terminal server, and then you
sure that some idiot NT administrator in some other department responsible
for the box.
Or you can make yourself a personal VNC/TS beater box. Run it headless
under your desk.
