   Thanks to everyone for the input.  
   But what is cost effective?  We have been using a laptop intermittently,
but it generates too much heat to run it all day in our small, poorly vented
receiving area with no AC.  There is also too little space for a recycled
full-size PC, though I could probably screw a laptop to the wall behind the
monitor.  The laptop we are currently using occasionally for this job is
always in the way.  The keyboard is on a pullout tray along with a trackball
(takes less space than a mouse.)
   I'm not so much looking for a pre-packaged solution as for a tiny little
computer with some standard connectors on it and which I can load with Linux
if it isn't already there.  
   Thanks,
