Probably cheaper yet (and certainly simpler) is one "heavy duty" box and a
cheap (perhaps diskless) box as an X terminal.
Actually I was after cheap *and* portable, commuting between two places
with a laptop, both places having an extra monitor/keybd/mouse, since
there would always be two of us.
The difference between 2 laptops or 2 monitors, etc. and 1 laptop might
not be all that significant.
