Have you heard about SIMH?  It's a suite of historical computer simulators.

There's a KA655 (MicroVAX 3800) in the package, and there's an experimental
DELQA module for it now, so you can have Ethernet if you run the sim on a
Win2k, Linux, or NetBSD host.

I'm running it on a 2GHz P4 Xeon (NetBSD 1.6 installed in the simulator),
and on that machine I'd definitely say it feels faster than my 4000/60
(which is itself a fairly speedy machine, in VAX terms).
