My company uses something like this for use on the manufacturing floor. It works well, OP.

We don't want thin clients. They need to be flexible enough to be used as full PCs due to the tech we use.

Then buy some NUC's and and protect them in some metal cases from home depot or something.

As for a optical drive, what the fuck are you guys doing in the year of 2017 that requires a ODD?
Also why the fuck do you need a ODD installed in every unit, why not bring along a USB-driven enclosure ODD for those occurrences?

Try searching for industrial or embedded computers. Those should be able to take a beating.

Ha ha. We use several old smartboards and teachers insist on playing DVDs now and then. Much of our infrastructure is very old and we are only just coming out of the dark ages.

The problem with external Odds is they tend to get used as missiles. Think of a borstal. That is similar to where I work. We also have limited budgets. Hence the initial idea. Thanks all anons that have contributed. It's appreciated.
