[NTLUG:Discuss] Thinking ALPHA

[Carter B. Bennett]

I have an opportunity to purchase an ALPHA box to run Linux on. I have
never had any experience with a ALPHA processor before, what do I need to
know before purchasing this box. I am looking at the screamers from
Microway. Will Linux look and feel the same as on an Intel box, and is
programming/development much different? This is kind of scarry for me but I
understand the ALPHA is about as fast as it get's.

You may be able to kill two birds with one stone, but in the end when it's
all over, all you really have are two dead birds, and your short one stone.
Hummmmmm
