Try x2go.
I've used nomachine but unless you buy the commercial version you're limited in number of users the server supports.

x2go is open source, utilizes some of the open source nx libraries but implements their own server & clients

native clients exist for mac, windows, linux

there is also a python version.

performance is great, audio, printing, file shares etc all work very well.

if you use Ubuntu there is even a firefox plugin so you can use firefox as a client.

its under very active development and has a great dev & user mail list you can join to find out more info.
