Hi bud,

Have you checked the prices on Alpha CPU's and main boards ? Or do you have
$$$ falling out of  mouth - or are you just rambling! If you are not you
might be better off getting DEC system !

FYI While you are at it why not getting 10.000 rpm's drives with a 14+mb/s
transfer instead of the slower Atlas II ?! You may even want to check out
the Fiber Channel
or the new 64-bit Adaptec cards coming next year ( don't tell me your video
card is 128 bit - i'll scream!

regards,

Henrik

PS: Sorry I couldn't hep my self! ;-)
