It is a good machine, supported by the BSDs. See src/release/texts/alpha/HARDWARE.TXT for details on the machine. Comes with a monitor (19" ?) - which is most probably useless, given that graphics heads are not really supported by the BSDs; 1GB SCSI harddrive; and AUI-RJ45 adapter. Currently, has OSF/1 installed, but the media for this will not be provided as a part of the sale. The machine is fairly heavy (~40Kg), so shipping is not an option. But if you live in Perth/Australia, it might be of interest to you. The sale is being done by bidding (closing next friday), with the current bid being AU$50 (about US$25!). If you are interested, please send me an email, and I'll forward your expression of interest to the chap that is running the sale (I'm not involved in the sale, and will not profit from it). Regards, Michael P.S. Sorry about the off-topic post, but I'd like this machine to go to a good home!
