> Alpha NT servers need dedicated ALPHA-Compiled software.

Not quite. Alphas can run most all x86 shrink-wrapped software
via its high-speed emulation software called FX!32.

(If you want the big benefits of superior Alpha performance,
especially in the floating-point arena, then you certainly
will want to use natively compiled software.)
