You can tell a real computer person by the number of screws holding their computer together. The fewer, the better! The case is never on, the drives are hardly bolted in, because they change so often, etc.
This doesn't work well from a product placement standpoint, being hard to identify a computer by its guts.

That is one nice thing about FreeBSD, it will install from floppy, or over a serial line. Very flexible install options.

Compaq can also move their Tandem non-stop line onto the Alpha chip.
