[HECnet] integrity and alpha hardware

There was a really nice AlphaServer clone? I tried to buy one once, but the seller never delivered (chargeback city). Not sure if they were supported by VMS, but they were supported by Tru64. I imagine the manufacturer went out of their way to use compatible components where possible. The API CS20. If I could find one, and it supported OpenVMS, I?d buy it in a heartbeat.

It has IDE slots and USB, both of which are sort of supported by VMS, redundant power supplies and fans, 4GB of RAM, two CPUs, and other good stuff. Problem is that it uses about 350 watts just sitting there doing nothing. It?s too expensive to leave it running all the time. But if you can afford the electric bill then a DS10 or 20 is a nice AXP VMS machine. BTW, if anybody has a floor pedestal for the DS20 that they?d like to get rid of. Let me know. Mine?s a rack mount but I don?t have a spare rack space for it. Bob
