Hello everyone!
I'm looking for sources of inexpensive Digital Alpha CPUs and motherboards
for a hobby project I'm putting together with my friends. I tried eBay, but
there is not much Alpha gear to be found there. I'd be very grateful for
any pointers.
PS. I love this list.

There is usually half a dozen of AXPpci mobos on sale on eBay, you may pick
them up at around 30 USD. Or are the supplies gone now?

I've not been looking at the DEC gear recently,
but last I did look the
number
of Alpha boardc and CPUs seemed to have gone down
drastically. I think
the supply is drying up. Seriously, unless you need 64-bit, or are like
me
and running OpenVMS, the question becomes, why? What
you're going to be
able to find and afford isn't going to be that fast compared to a
Pentium III or IV Motherboard and processor which is likely to cost less.
Some of us have software that only runs on Alpha. Others like to play with
OSes other than MS Windows. Some like to build a machine that's different.
I'm looking for lower-end cpus and motherboards to run Linux, NetBSD,
FreeBSD, and OpenBSD on.

They're gone. I'm looking for the lower end motherboards and 166MHz or
233MHz Alphas.
