Umar,
A couple of thoughts:
For mounting the screen, sink an IP65 box into the wall, insert the screen
and seal the box with a clear perspex cover. Still have to work out how to
make it look "pretty" but it may give you a starting point.
Alternatively, look at the industrial interfaces offered by the likes of
Siemens (some of their screens incorporate a PC built behind them).
Instead of a wireless keyboard, what about one of these ? (see the pic at
the bottom)

Given the falling lcd screen prices, I am seriously considering putting a
15" LCD screen in the bathroom, vga connection to the loft where I can
site a mini-itx box, with RF keyboard and mouse to control it back in the
bathroom. I have cat5 into the loft, and so I can then access n0 for divx,
mp3, and web-browsing. I can run amplified speakers from mini-itx.
I know others have considered this in a bathroom - has anyone completed
this project yet? Any tips on how to waterproof the screen?
Maybe given recent x-box thread I should consider putting an x-box in the
loft - but how do I control it, and can I view x-box on a VGA LCD?
Any ideas anyone?
