As a former dec flag waver, this is a sad day. From the company that brought us the first 32-bit and 64-bit cpus, helped develop X-Windows, helped Microsoft with NT and provide a server platform with some credibilty, and whose platforms were among the first to run UNIX I'm sorry to see the demise of one of the best lines of cpus to bite the dust
i forgot to add the following: my only question who would produce an open source, next generation alpha, its not exactly like burning a prom?
sounds like a pretty cool idea. there once was a time where alpha performance couldnt be beat ...
