DEC's PDP-1134 would be your best bet.

It can't run Ubuntu, but it can run a fairly recent version of UNIX, to 
which PureData could be ported if it gets shrunk to fit in 0.000122 meg of 
RAM.

If the RAM is a bit too tight, don't worry, it comes with two tapedecks, 
as you can see in the 1st and 4th towers.

It's such a wonder of technology. Much smaller than a real computer.

It wouldn't take that many man-months of porting to get it going...
