I always take my PDA with me along with Bluetooh enabled cell phone when go into the woods or to the mountain side, since GPRS (Internet via the cell phone) works in this part of Russia almost everywhere.
Thus, i very often read Slashdot from some strange places like 40 metres tall rock near the Ural mountains, or sitting by the campfire.
Once i did it even from the deep deep forest, at 2 am:-)
Almost the same solution was developed 4 years ago at Moscow State Industrial Institute.
It was 3-headed machine with three Matrox PCI video cards, one PS/2 keyboard/mouse pair and two USB keyboard/mouse pairs.
This solution is already installed in multiple schools in Moscow city (don't know if it was installed outside Moscow), and it was called Gorynych after the Russian Mythological "Zmey Gorynych" - dragon with three heads.
