RE: "Tim: Alphas are CPU's for workstations only, not PCs" NOT SO.

The 21164PC chip fabbed by Samsung is selling right now in sub $2000 pc's by companies like Enorex and Aspen. It runs NT at 533MHz. The chip itself sells for about $300 to $400 (see www.digital.com for details). It requires a Alpha specific motherboard and mostly standard pc cards.

Neat machine.

For more 21164PC information see digital.com

The pricing I gave in a previous note is from some fuzzy recall.
The machine kills Intel machines on price/ performance.
