I recommend getting 386BSD from agate.berkeley.edu or NetBSD from 
sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu. These are free and complete BSD systems.
Its real UNIX. If you also get XFree86 you'll have some reasonable
UNIX workstations at a university buget price. They also have
complete networking and support for a number of ethernet cards.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
