Or keep a local program running to do that, it would seem more usefull to me. Or if you buy a (few) really fast server machines, you could run X on that and have cheapo clients, I would expect it would be more easy to centrally administer those (could be cheaper too). But then again, I've never tried that. just a few thoughts.
