Been there....
A/UX (Apple's old UNIX), will run on an SE/30, and I have one loaded up and
running at the office for nostalga's sake. Preservationist that I am, the
single button think is a killer, as is the small resolutoin of the screen.
I won't even talk about the limited horsepower available.
If you're rea;;y looking for a small, quiet. useful terminal in the kitchen,
a hacked Iopener is a much better choice. Color, no fan, no spinning disk,
quick boot and can easily do ethernet over usb with a $10 adaptor.
