Ladies and gentlemen, I give you WeirdMind:

"WeirdMind allows you to embed an entire X server and SSH1 client in your java-enabled web browser. If an X program is opened, the X server will be automatically started, and the window will pop up on top of your web browser."

That's right... A full ssh client and X server in a browser applet. I've used it to do both routine and emergency admin work from internet cafes while on vacation in Canada, Europe, Japan, etc.

Rejoice, and Hallelujah my brethren!
