The pedestal broke some time ago and I"d rather not operate it horizontally. Initially the system just had 40 MB and I wouldn't recommend that for VMS. My Alpha Server 300 runs at the same clock speed and that system is a lot faster. Off hand I can't recall whether the systems have the same cpu and board logic. Ahh, I know those machines well; I ran three or four of them here for a long time, as general "utility" servers. One was my mail server, one was my web server, one ran DNS and other network infrastructure stuff. They were great machines. I just gave the stack of them (but retained one =)) to a friend at VCF-East last month. Good little machines, and reasonably power-efficient and compact while still having enough PCI slots to do useful things. They are based on the 21064A; considerably faster than the 21066 at the same clock speed. I don't recall what chipset is wrapped around it.
