   VAXstation
3100 with decent RAM and disks for less than you could get a
 replacement disk for that system. 
It would be nice.  The power draw would be a damn sight less too. :)

There is also the issue of noise and heat!  But power and disks are the big
two.  The only reason I can see to have a Q-Bus based VAX as your main VAX
is if you need a specific Q-Bus widget.  Of course if you're lucky enough
to have SCSI for your Q-Bus VAX.....
