Thanks all for the suggestions.
I've decided to go with a spare IBM 8580 I have. They're built like a

Can't go wrong with a PS/2! if anything can live in a bad environment, a PS/2
can do it. I'd change the ESDI for SCSI. controller cards and drives are
cheap and plentiful. I can help in that respect... The only other machine
that would be better is an IML based 386 slc PS/2. Then you'd have builtin
SCSI and reference partition instead.
