> I nedd something cheap
Do what I did. I couldn't afford the hardware. So I sent around a broadcast
e-mail at work/church/contacted friends explaining what I was doing
(learning about and evaluating Plan 9) and that I needed donations of junk
("working trash", something you're relieved to get rid of) hardware. It has
worked like a charm, and people have been very generous. I'm currently
making my third and last computer, a '486 terminal. Best donation so far: an
Abit BH6, 333MHz CPU, 196MB RAM, modem, SB 64, and Viper 550 video card. I
owe the donor lunch. :)

You can't get much cheaper than minix. It can even be installed on
an 8088 with 640k RAM and 20 meg hard disk, or it can be installed
on an existing 386 or higher DOS/Win system without re-partitioning
the hard drive.
