No, many users cannot be logged in the same time. Only server OS can do that. There are some "hacks" which you can do with your Xp to allow many terminal sessions in the same time. Which includes replacing some dlls with ones from Windows server 2003, and editing the registry. If you mean many users access to shared folders or printers, then the answer is yes. You can do that without any "hacks".
What are the problems that arise when OS resources are used by more than one user?
When OS resources are used by multiple users, the computer may become slower as each user uses up some of the internal memory (RAM), or accesses the hard drive or processor at the same time. In cases where multiple users are logged in but only one uses the computer at a time then the idle users will still consume some of the RAM and if they have processes running in the background then it may still use some CPU or disk I/O.

Why is a remote desktop necessary?
Remote Desktop is a feature of Windows XP Professional that allows you to work on your computer when you are not at your computer. This is simplest when you are on the same network (i.e. at work, but in another office) but can also be access through the internet using VPN (virtual private networking). To access a computer using Remote Desktop, it must have been enabled on the computer and the users that can access this facility have to be specified (except for administrators who will automatically have this permission). Every user account that is to use Remote Desktop must have a password. When you log in to your computer remotely, the welcome screen will be displayed on its screen, preventing other users from seeing your work. Any users that are logged in will automatically be logged out. You can access all of the applications and files that are on your computer as if you were sitting at your own desk.
