Hi,

Sorry if this is in a FAQ, but I've looked around on web pages and mailing
list archives and couldn't find anything.  I'd like to run FreeBSD on an
alpha, and need to decide which alpha to buy.  From INSTALL.TXT I see that
it runs on:

        UDB, Multia, AXPpci33, Noname
        EB164, PC164, PC164LX, PC164SX
        EB64+, Aspen Alpine, etc.
        AlphaStation 200, 250, 255, 400
        AlphaStation 500, 600
        Digital Personal Workstation 433, 500, 600
        DEC3000/300 family (netboot only)
        DEC3000/[4-9]00 family (netboot only)


...but when I look on www.digital.com/alphaserver/, I see completely
different model numbers (I assume this has to do with the digital/compaq
changeover).

I see models like
	AlphaServer 800, DS10, ES540, 4100, GS560E, 8200
	AlphaStation DS10E, XP1000, "au Series"
	etc...

How do I know which is which?  Can someone help, or point me in the right
direction?  Thanks!
