They have added built in desktop sharing support which will let you grab the :0.0 display with any VNC client. You would need to boot up with a keyboard and start KDE. Then move to the back office machine and grab the KDE desktop with desktop sharing, by then, you can go and remove everything except the screen from the front machine. KDE's desktop sharing is *FAST*, so people looking at your machine from the font will probably think everything is automated.
