You've ruled out the use of PC's with terminal then.

Digital and HP made them for years. You'll come across VT520s if you're lucky.
Take a look at /etc/termcap on a unix system for a list!
How many do you need? How dumb is dumb?

p.s. I also had a couple of DEC Rainbow 100's (ex NIHE!) that were great terminals with a built in PC.
