Is the machine running anything critical at this moment?  If not, go out there and get a FreeBSD CD-ROM and give it a shot.  Or if you do have a high speed connection to an archive site, you can save the CD-ROM cost (which is minimal) by FTPing the files over.  If you want to dump that machine, please contact me!

I have this very nice NEC RiscServer 2200 and since it has been abandoned
by microsoft I was wondering if I can find a UNIX os to run on this
hardware.
