I'm fairly open to what model, I'm not snobby.
Big or small, it should run
VMS fine.
Do yourself a favor, and look for a MicroVAX/VAXstation 3100 series, or
VAXstation 4000 series system. They're SCSI based which will make your life
considerably easier. Add a VT420 instead of an actual monitor and you've
got a very nice system.
It might also be worth looking at Alpha's, the Itanium 2's still cost to
much, as VMS runs on all three platforms.
