I'd recommend starting with a machine such as a VAXstation 3100 or
4000-VLC, and then working to older bigger hardware from there...
I've currently got a VS3100 and a 4000-VLC (master.decvax.org).
I'd kill to have a 11/7x0 machine (I've got plenty of room for it),
but have yet not been able to find one available within a reasonable
distance (and have yet to find *any* DEC hardware available in
Austin...)
