Umm... you can already do this. You just need to make sure that all tasks for the computer you want to remove have been validated and removed from the computer. ID: 1394331 ·

Once there is no tasks assigned to them, you go into the details page of that particular computer and at the bottom will be a "Delete this computer" link next to the Merge link. ID: 1394364 ·
