I use a mini-ITX PC in a tool box under the mount. Connect to it via Remote Desktop. It handles plate solving without difficulty. Has 6 USB sockets and 2 real serial ports. I roll up all the cables and store them in the toolbox. All runs off 12V, so easy to use at my remote site.
What you are suggesting might even be better - others have mounted their small PC ontop of the OTA, so cable runs are very short with less risk of tangling.
