It's all part.. of my rock & roll fantasy
You know what would increase the quality of my world 10-fold if not higher? To get away from this computer, go out in the yard with a laptop that has 30 minutes battery life and carry on where I left off on the desktop computer. Everything still on the main screen. Check email, edit Photoshop/Gimp, organize files, send an email etc. Come back in, plug the laptop in for a charge. Fire up a thin client, everything still on the screen where I'd left off.
After I installed midori browser on the XFCE desktop, right away I had two other computers over LAN using same login, and they were different instances of the same desktop. I'm not saying I expected to mirror what the other computer was doing, and truth be told a Pogoplug Pro doesn't have the RAM to act as a central Desktop, but the more I think of it, one of the Thin Clients around here might perfectly fit the bill.
