Where the heck did you get the SPEC numbers for the Alpha? Looking at: specbench.org the only Alpha that has performance with those numbers (excluding multiprocessor systems) is the 500 MHz 21164, and surely DEC is not selling those at a price that would make it feasible to sell a system for $6200, is it? Alphastation 500/500: SpecFP95: 20.4 SpecInt95: 15.0 Alphastation 500/266: SpecFP95: 11.1 SpecInt95: 7.93 (these are both single processor. Numbers submitted this summer.) And I don't think Core Microsystems can make a system that would outperform DEC's own Alphastations by a factor of 2x, can they? But then again, I could be wrong. I haven't been keeping track of Alpha developments... -- Bernard Yeh
