in short: Users starts his computer, connects to a vritual machine to use for

What you might benefit from is a Xen farm where a bunch of virtual Windows
machines run. Actually, it might be better to run a Windows Terminal Server,
since running Windows workstations virtually is quite expensive license wise.
Next you use something like LTSP to have old machines boot with PXE and connect
immediately with RDP to the Terminal Servers.
