A little question about old Alphas: I have an Alphastation 200 4/100 here, 100 Mhz 21064. It feels "slow as molasses" compared to e.g. a P-133. Is there any possibility of overclocking these machines? (Yes, I know, one shouldn't overclock, and it can break things. I don't care - this is not a critical machine...)
