I want to mess around with something new. I know my way around Windows, Classic, X, and some Linux distros. What I want to do now is see what else is out there. I don't know a lot but this is what I want to look at:

SGI
Sun
nExt
Be

I'd like to poke around in one of those boxes, maybe set it up as a terminal and see what I can see. The problem I have is that I do not know where to begin. What platform should I try? Which hardware would be cooler? SGI and Sun systems would be the easiest to acquire, but a nExt or Be box would be very cool. Help me out, I want to learn.
