Not exactly what was asked originally but consider using Dell PowerEdge servers with Enterprise iDRAC component. You get nice IP-KVM + power switch. This adds around $300 to the overall server price. BTW, looks like this iDRAC is implemented on the base of Avocent gear which is one of the best in IP-KVMs. I'm completely satisfied using iDRACs in a number of servers. Just my $0.05.

There are others. This one appears to be web/java based rather than VNC, though that probably isn't a killer for most people.
I thought I'd seen a little dongle-y model; I'll look around a bit more.
Didn't read far enough; Jussi Peltola posted this downthread:

That's the item I wanted, and it's only $200. And Lantronix' support department is arguably the best hardware vendor support organization I have *ever* worked with.
