Of course. 40,000 viruses can't be wrong about windows as the platform
of choice...

Ummm, yes.  X includes it on the console screen if you enable it
in the X config.  But, you don't need vnc for remote access anyway
unless you want it for some reason.  X by itself has always been
able to work remotely, either with a full desktop or individual
windows from remote machines.  Most Linux distributions do include
vncserver (for additional sessions besides the console one) and
vncviewer.  No windows distribution includes VNC - it is always
a 3rd party addon.

Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't.  Sort of like a videophone being
more useful than just voice.  You don't always need the moving pictures.
Sometime you might prefer to just talk/type.
