Glad you mentioned that - someone else just reminded me that I should have said something about this. If you've already *got* an ALPHA machine then you are, of course, more than welcome to join this effort in whatever capacity you're comfortable with. My previous annoucement was simply an effort to determine the best homes for these rather limited resources from Digital. I also have an ALPHA already and might consider making it available "to the cause" in some fashion, perhaps by bringing it into Walnut Creek CDROM and plugging it into the LAN so that guests could log in and start poking around with various bits of technology. Don't know how useful that would be, however (the box runs Digital UNIX 4.0B). Jordan
