Hi Declan,
It sounds interesting. Just two weeks ago I came across an old DEC
386 that the former owner was quite happy to give to me. I look
forward to trying out a few on the mini linuxes on it as well. It
will probably be after the holidays though, as I am gathering the
pieces together to finally attempt to network the pc's here. Was
glad to hear that someone else had an interest in the older machines
as well,

Dallam
