If you are on a local/high speed subnet and are not using your Linux
workstation for games or multimedia, then a very cheap and easy way
is with vncserver.
use "up2date -i vncserver"
Then edit /etc/sysconfig/vncservers and add a line like:
VNCSERVERS="0:username"
to the end of it.
chkconfig --list | grep vncserver
modify as appropriate and then run "service vncserver start"

and install it on your windows box.
If you are looking for a more scalable and robust windowing system
then use X-windows, but you will have to get an X windows client for
windows. I recommend Exceed, but it is expensive.
