I got my Alphas home after the meeting and fired one of them up.  Noisy 
sucker, but works fine so far.  After I got the blasted AlphaBIOS off 
of it and the SRM firmware on, I was able to get OpenBSD installed.

I imagine Debian is a popular choice for this platform, but I'm 
wondering if there are any other folks running older Alphas that have a 
favorite distro for this platform.
