It was here, nobody was using it, so it became mine. :) I might consider purchasing a low-end alpha for my home, just to have and tinker with. I was also considering purchasing an old UltraSPARC, but alphas are 10 times cooler ;) I've looked at various used alpha hardware dealers, but as I said before, I don't know much about alphas. It seems there are LOADS of different ones. AlphaStation 200, huh? Do they have no cache either? ;) Any suggestions on a (fairly) cheap alpha?
