Hey, another thought... what about a single multi-core machine powering several users at the same time? Might need 2-3 cheapo video cards powering 2-3 monitors each... but would one $1000 machine be better than 5 users with their own $200 dedicated machine?
1.) Maybe take one refurbished Dell Precision T3500, HP Z400, or Lenovo S20 LGA 1366 Workstation and either use a Nehalem 4C/8T or Westmere 4C/8T or 6C/12T Xeon processor and load up with RAM (12GB to 24GB depending on the number of users).
Ok, and then what? How are you planning on having multiple users using the same physical machine at the same time?
