The performance of the alpha boxes under Windows NT is not earth-shaking. Especially if you compare it to new 400 mhz intel chips which cost less. You need axp versions of the software. The standard win32 software runs only in slow emulation mode (fx32). Most of the software vendors don't compile their products for axp.
There are some server-products which are axp native.
