Then an Intel NUC, another ~$600 gets you core i7 with 16 gb of ram.

Velcro it to the back of the monitor.

I like all in ones but the problem is if the display side dies the processing side is useless and vice versa.

All in under $1k.

The PPOT Brain Trust is amazing! You guys have been a great help.

I like this solution. We have a portable stand with a keyboard and mouse so we can operate the computer from the touchscreen or closer to the piece we are working on. It's very handy to be able to operate it from two different locations. This will allow us to keep doing that.
