Does anybody collect old mainframe stuff or even older servers?
I was pretty close to getting an old SGI Origin system but wussed out.

Mainframe stuff probably isn't it worth it, the electrical wiring in the build has to be built for it- their power consumption was typically measured in megawatts. And let's not get started on cooling.
You're best off sticking with workstations and old micros. minicomputers may be viable, but they still take up quite a bit of space

also I agree, you'd be better off getting something like a old SGI, Sun, or IBM server or workstation.
