Unix on old-ish machines - advice sought

[Stan Barr]

Hi,

I'd like to get a straight (ie no X) Unix running on some sort of
older, but not necessarily ancient, hardware.  My Micro-11/73 is
not really suitable, and PDP-11s that are seem to be a bit thin
on the ground over here in the UK.  I've seen a few Vaxen and 
MicroVaxen on the market lately so my thoughts are turning in
that direction.  I know a few people here run such machines and I'm
seeking advice on the best machine to look for and, at the risk of
starting a religious war, the best unix to run on it... :-)

TIA...
