Thanks for the swift response Ben. My client has looked into the Gateway 'One' which is an all-in-one PC/monitor similar to the Dell unit you speak of. Unfortunately the client does not like these type of units. This is unfortunate because it would make my life much easier. They've tried hiding the tower units in a closet, and not only do they sound like a launching rocketship, but they experience heavy overheating in the wooden desks.
I'm really looking out on a limb here... IP-enabled KVM switch to a virtual machine? Thin clients with RDP access to a Terminal Server? KVM-over-Ethernet? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
