And in the end using another computer as a client may not end up working.
I have tried chrome RDC, Logmein in , and ultra vnc and I dunno why but my rig will BSOD if I mine and remote access at the same time. I can do one or the other but not both. I even tried turning the intensity down on the card the monitor uses and it still BSODs.
So I dunno but if I can't figure it out I guess it's back to trying to find a decent non line of site KVM.
Use Teamviewer.
2nded.
Also, I was just pointing out there were actually two right solutions (and some even cheaper than the chromebook were even available for terminals).
