Hi, got a nice DEC 7000 with 4 CPUs 1GB of memory. AFAIK it is the first Alpha model made. Same chassis as the VAX 7000. This one works beautifully and sounds really nice. I had OSF installed on it once (have the OSF CD with it, just no license key.) I can't keep it though, because now I have my VAX 6660 together and my last spot is gone. I would like to trade this one for a VAX 40000 in a pedestal. Don't you think that is a fair trade?

If you come here you get to see my collection of VAX6460 with vector processors and an 11/780. You may even get a VAX6400 for free and another smaller alpha (DEC3000 system) as a thank you gift. This one is heavy. However, there are at least two ways to load it: either liftgate truck, or a u-haul low-floor truck or trailer. The low-floor trucks are really nice: cheap to rent and easy to load (we just lay the machine on its side.) regards, -Gunther
