Can anyone think of a good way to be able to look after a few servers
remotely?

What I need to do is the following.

SSH/telnet
VNC
IMAP mail

memo pad etc would be nice.

Connectivity via IR/modem/RS232 (Ethernet & wifi would be good)

In a format that doesn`t look like its worth pinching if left in a car
overnight!

I am thinking along the lines of a old PDA or 386/486 Laptop, but wonder if
these would be up to for example the overhead of ssh?

I am working on very little budget!

Anybody achieved this?
