Are there any major versions of windows you can do this on?
I know on our Windows Server 2003 server with Terminal Services
enabled we can connect multiple users, but on XP pro (version I'm most
familiar with) you can't have one user logged on locally and another
remote desktop user--it's one or the other? When the Remote Desktop
user connects, the local screen blanks, and if you're logging on as a
new user, the current session gets logged off first.
If there's a way to get around this, I'd love to hear it!

Sure - use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and log into a different

than the one the user is logged into.
And of course windows is multi-user - where did you get the idea it
wasn't?

In Unix, I can access the box remotely in a separate screen so that

there a way to do this in Windows? (I don't think there is, since
Windows
isn't really multi-user, but I figured I'd ask.)
