Ian, ISA slot PCs can be found on eBay. You just need to wait for something coming around. If you don’t want to buy there (or actually look for a new one) you can try and contact suppliers of industrial automation systems - New PCs with ISA/EISA slots are still produced for those business areas (but: not exactly cheap).
