Back in the early 90's Insignia Solutions created a product called SoftPC which ran a PC emulator on a Unix box. They later came out
with SoftWindows which ran a Windows emulator on Unix. To my surprise it is still available (albeit in a Windows 95 version):
They also made a product that ran Windows NT on a central PC server and pushed the display out to Unix machines but unfortunately I
cannot remember the name of this product.
