Have you considered connecting to a VM with your laptop? Now that you have the huge thing in your home the latency would be minimal and you can stash it in you garage.

I have it under my desk, it's quiet compared to desktops from a couple of generations ago, but loud compared to modern laptops (i.e. that are usually silent). I like the ability to run dual 4K displays which my laptop can't :)
