Mudfoot is an alpha (at least it looked like an alpha when I 
saw it this morning).  You'll have to ask Kevin or Jon, however,
for the complete specs.

Also, I'd like to know if the alphas support IDE?  (Or PCI?) There
have been some studies lately that suggest that the newest PCI
(i.e. Ultra 133) is just as fast, if not faster than SCSI and it
most certainly is cheaper.

 This would be a very good time to hang out with the Open Source 
 people, before they get formally reclassified as a national security 
 threat. -- Bruce Sterling
