Windows 2000?
Time for some changes
Yup, I've been busy with my other life the past year, but I'm getting to
the point where I'm settling down. So, as things quiet down IRL, why
not shake 'em up a bit on the net?
We've generated a bit of interest on the AlphaNT mail list in getting updated
info on where things are. There have been a number of excellent suggestions
on things to do, ranging from open source projects to cleaning up dead links
on these pages. I'll manage the changes, but will look to you, dear
readers, to contribute the actual content. To get us started off, let's
take a look at something simple, but something that's been asked for by several
folks: a gallery of systems.
This is actually quite easy to accomplish, as there's already an AlphaNT
gallery on the ftp archive. I propose that folks who want to submit
an entry send a picture of their system along with a description, and I'll
post it there. Descriptions should be the kind of thing I can simply
cut-and-paste; simple HTML is allowed (e.g., unordered lists and such). If
you take a look, you'll find my system listed there already, as "Aarons_164RX.jpg".
Send your submission to the Alphaman for inclusion in the gallery!
Other ideas
Lots of folks wanted to devote some time to more technical efforts -- porting
code, lists of software compatible with FX!32, pulling together system documentation,
and fixing up dead links using the Internet Archive. I'll post more
info here as people commit to the various efforts.

What's New?

Hi again! It's been a long time coming, but I've finally gotten around
to fixing the web-based archive, including file descriptions plus the
capability to view the contents of any zip files without having to
download them. Bon chance!
Mail list page update
Aaron, 27-Oct-2001
I've corrected the information on the mail list page to reflect the current state of
the list, subscription info, and archives. If you've recently tried to subscribe to any
of the old lists, please reference the corrected instructions on the Mail List page!
Not everything works
Aaron, 21-Oct-2001
A lot of the content was lost in the transfer from the earlier hosting service,
unfortunately. Things like the mail list archive from 1998-2000 are history, although
earlier content is available. There is no search engine right now, nor does any of the
CGI code (including the file archive with descriptions -- go straight to the FTP site
listed on that page instead.)
We're back...
Aaron, 21-Oct-2001
Yup, hello again after a long hiatus. Sorry for the delay, but there's
been plenty going on trying to get this site back up. No thanks to the
nay-sayers and do-nothings, but thanks to all the folks who've pulled together to get the
site back up on a much more secure server! Major props to Ron and Paul for their work!
