I have the a opportunity to purchase a used DEC Alpha 500a Personal
Workstation with the following specs:
128MB Ram
4GB UW SCSI
Q-Logic UW SCSI Controler
Diamond FireGL 1000 Pro video card
The machine comes installed with NT, but I plan on switching to Tru64
which it also comes with it (along with the firmware upgrades). I believe
all of the above hardware is compatible, but I haven't found any
information on if the graphics card is supported with the X server shipped
with tru64 4.0F/5.0/5.1. Could anyone verify if this graphics card will
work?
If anyone has any other opinons/comments regarding running Tru64 on a DEC
Alpha 500a Personal Workstation or what they think a fair price for it
would be please let me know. Thanks for all your help. A summary will
follow if I recieve any replies.
