Dear managers,
I am preparing (read it: saving :-) to buy an Alpha workstation to play
with (I don't want to touch our production Alpha server). I wonder if
someone could provide me with some insight to Alpha workstations (as in
their speed range, peripherals, speed vs. price, speed vs. Intel machines,
etc).

By the way, I wonder if anyone has had experience in running Linux on
Alpha (either server or workstation). Any comparison, comments, etc is
very welcome.

cheers,
Hossein
