well - sort of...the clients are free to download for your Mac (Chicken
of the VNC or nx-client)

The server must be setup (in the case of freenx, it must be installed
and then set up).

FreeNX is a bit slicker, faster, better. VncServer is already installed
on your computer and all you need to do is configure it.
