I ended up using a clean RD53, which unfortunately
doesn't allow me room to add the compilers.  Of
course, with a machine that would have trouble keeping
up with a fast 486, the compilers would have limited
use anyway.

I may have to see if I can resurrect a VS3100 buried
in the basement.  It's a rush to see this VS2000 back
in service, but a VS2000 with 6 MB of memory and 70 MB
of disk has pretty limited utility these days.

Thanks for the info,
