Subject: FT: Alpha Architecture Docs
The Alpha was started by DEC in 1988 as a replacement
for the VAX,
it
extends the address space to 64 bits and switches from
a CISC
architecture
to a RISC architecture.
I've got a copy the Alpha Architecture Reference Manual (AARM) and
the
Alpha Architecture Handbook (AAH) which combined give
you everything
you
need to know about the Alpha.
They're extras.
I Picked up a Multia the other day and the previous owner tossed in
the Schematics ( for 2 revisions).
I will attempt to make scans when I get access to a scanner.
