Yeah, which is a big turn off. On the other hand: Just use Google to search 
for the term "1u server with lcd":

http://www.google.com/search?q=1u+server+with+lcd&start=0&start=0

I just looked at the first returned link (www.aberdeeninc.com), but that gives 
some nice ideas about features and pricing:

It's a "naked" 1U unit with LCD panel and minus the OS. The prices don't look 
too bad although I have not yet started to compare them with other vendors of 
similar units.

I could very well imagine using such a system in conjunction with Guardian 
Digital EnGarde Secure Linux:

That's the OS (with GUI) which I plan to use for new boxes as long as Qbalt is 
not yet available.
