Peter,
Processing power isn't an issue. Although I do have a Pi or two kicking about...
Networking is border line - the POE just makes it to the shed (I am on a semi-rural property so distance comes into it).
I already use a dock at the bench. As you say, I plug in the laptop and all is good.
Well except the network won't connect until I unplug the USB CAT converter - once the ethernet is up I can plug the CAT back in and all is good. I haven't dug into why this is the case yet, since as soon as the network and CAT are both up I am busy chasing DX
Physical real estate for the monitor/s is the constraint, which seems odd, as for the first time in my life I have a large secure shed or two!
Next time I wander out there and set up I'll grab a snap of the set up.
