I would recommend that you start X only if necessary (= when your boss uses it). It shouldn't be too hard for him to log in and then issue the command 'startx'? If he is not using the root account, then put 'startx' in his login scripts or something to get X automatically started when he logs in.
And don't use Gnome, use a lightweight wm like Blackbox of XFCE. If your boss is very Windows-only type of guy, you might even consider using XPDE (http://www.xpde.com/) which I've found quite lightweight also (though the project is far from being finished or stable).
