Hi Pietro,

It has been quite some time since I touched anything like that...

Some googling turned out this:

I guess you can get some machine used boxen from there. Be careful
with the peripherals (e.g. NIC), cause it will be a pain to find
working ones these days (for older boxen). Also you might need a SCSI
HDD.

I have no idea how you'll get a software license these days, or will
you be installing Linux?
