Parham Data does exactly what you've described at one of our smaller customer sites - They have a dozen or so PC's and the only one directly connected to the internet is a UNIX box. All the rest of them use Microsoft Windows, and they can connect to each other and access the internet only through the UNIX system.
Another attractive option is a hardware firewall, which does not have an operating system. Some are relatively inexpensive and the only software running on 'em is firmware so they're pretty robust.
