I guess that was HP's idea. Itanic, *shudder*
I still like the Alpha. (Of course, I liked MIPS before that.)
We've still got some OpenVMS on Alpha am *my* $DayJob, but they're starting to
shop for non-VMSish POSIX platforms. I don't think they're going to let me
take home the big Alphas for Linux when they're done, though ;-)
