Excellent. Thanks Malcolm. I have a case all ready for that one
and a position on a KVM switch. I'm off to get another KVM
tomorrow for the others, gotta go to Auckland anyway and I decided
against going broadband with Wired Country so I have a little to
spend. Dial-up will do for a bit longer.

No problems...arrrgh..run them headless and use VNC, much easier.
You can wind the colour down to 256 colours and get some more
performance points out of it.

Actually radmin is much better than VNC, but it does require a
license. Cracks are available but that is your own decision.
Radmin lets you log-in and you see the other computers screen and
your computer and mouse think they are on that computer. Works MUCH
better than a KVM switch, had those too, and VNC.
I have 17 computers on line now and they are all operated thru my
main computer thru radmin.

And for something 'fast & dirty', you have "remote desktop" already
built into XPro, though I haven't used it:

Thanks for the input gents.
