Re: Remote Desktop
VNC will let you take control of an existing Windows session.

Very good for remotely "tutoring" someone, they watch while you take them through some operation or another.

As for remote desktop, providng your logging in as the same user you won't get a new session, that only happens on windows server os's, what will happen is that the user will get logged out on the local machine and the session will get transferred to remote desktop. If the same user then logs back in at the remote machine the remote desktop session will then get terminated.
