  I haven't taken a look at where jhb left off with X11, but I hope to
this weekend.  I have sent Peter at least 5 emails about the Alpha
ports cluster in the past 2 weeks, but the machines are still not
available.  Mind you, that several of my emails included an offer to
personally drive down to Yahoo! and do whatever grunt work is
necessary to setup the machines.

  I put a new 7200RPM disk into my PWS500 and got my make world time
down to just over 3 hours.  As an exercise in patience I've just
started a "make release" to see how long the build will take.  Is disk
I/O this slow on all FreeBSD/Alpha machines, or is it just mine?
bonnie++ results are pathetic compared to any x86 box on my network.
