I just happened to spot this on eBay while looking at something else. 
A VAX 4000-108, in other words a VAX that looks like a DEC Alpha PWS.

ELI only wants $8.5k for it, while they will see you a nice DS20E 
dual 667Mhz system for $2.3k, even an ES45 with dual 1Ghz CPU's is 
cheaper. :^)

At the same time this is the first photograph I've ever seen of one 
of these systems.  Somewhere I have the golden egg describing it.
