To stay on topic (somewhat): why no RS/6000 under AIX? That platform can run DECnet at least. 
I'm not so sure about the AS/400, only had to deal with it once so far. IP, not a DECnet problem IIRC.

So with my long, non-billing Sunday afternoons giving me ideas, I've started to ponder procuring a midrange IBM box, say an AS/400.


How much do these things cost (like say a 93 vintage), weigh and dissipate heat? Also, how do you hook them up?
