There are vendors of dinky little PCs for tight, hot spots. I looked at them for an application but it didn't work out but I was impressed by the selection. Here's a link to one that had a pretty broad selection of options.

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, --Brian M.
