You can also run KDE/Gnome, etc on a windows machine too. Same idea as with 2 linux boxes, just get a X Server for windows and a SSH client for windows that supports X Forwarding and you can have the Windows GUI and KDE up and running on the same monitor at the same time. I did it once with the windows icons on the left and KDE icons on the right. Windows task bar on the bottom and KDE on the top. Was kind of cool looking. Great for those times when someone absolutely needs windows for a specific app but they can still use a Linux application server at the same time for all the other apps :)
