Hi there. I've got those here as well. DEC3000/800 w/ 256MB, DEC 3000/300L w/
256MB, DEC 3000/300LX w/ 208MB. All with different harddisks. Some Turbo Channel
adapters rescued (ZLX E, 3D-Turbo Channel graphics adapters from DEC MIPS). Used
as servers for DHCP, WWW and the like, and for historical reasons.

NetBSD seems to be the one and only alternative for a decent unix on those old,
but rock solid systems.

Regards
