Although I would consider this to be a 'management' hacking demo rather than
'advanced' hacking, I have done pretty much exactly the same demo. :)

Couple of other ideas - I have used TightVNC, which you can configure not to
display a toolbar icon.

To demo stepping-stone attacks you can compromise a webserver or whatever
behind a firewall, then compromise a second machine from the webserver,
install VNC on #2 and bounce there using fport or something on #1 - even if
outside communication to the second machine is denied by the firewall.

Another nice one is to install a keylogger and collect a CC number from
inside HTTPS sessions or maybe a PGP passphrase - seems to be the FBI
favourite ;)

This is all very lame, obviously, but it's just for demos, right?

Or have the remote system running VNC anyway. Then connect to 
the remote registry with credentials and decrypt the VNC 
password using Cain, then connect.

I am not sure about VMWare, I also had some problems running 
demos consistently and decided to use a separate machine.

I usually do my demos with a similar configuration XP -> 2000. 

A good 5 min sketch is:
- get a remote shell using Jill, iis5hack or dcomexploit
- You end up as NT Authority/SYSTEM in all cases, therefore 
you can add yourself as an administrator
- connect to the admin$ share using your new credentials
- dump the SAM file with pwdump3
- crack some hashes using john
- copy winvnc to system32
- add your vnc password to the remote registry
- install and start winvnc remotely
- start a VNC session
