Can you say "serial console"? :)
i live in it :P
i really wish somebody'd hack the TGA-console driver...
anyway, i can telnet in, etc, so that's ok.

anyway, FreeBSD's pretty nice on it, aside from the fact that the OSF1
port is being a bitch and a half to get to work.

yes, i noticed. And i COULD get linux for this. One problem though;
that'd be LINUX! :P
i've had very few good experiences with linux on the alpha. it was SUCH
a relief to get FreeBSD on it finally!
