An interesting discussion, especially considering the stuff usually
spoken in comp.os.vms regardiong the viability of X86 boxes.
I have had 3 Alphas.? Two of the office refrigerator sized boxes
and one of the PC Tower sized boxes.? All three have died.? In
the meantime I have X86 based boxes that are much older and
continue to serve me well.? While I thought the Alpha was an
excellent architectural design the market has made it somewhat
irrelevant.
Of course, when t comes to VMS I still run a VAX.? :-)
