If you're interested in owning your own desktop-sized #AlphaServer #DS10 server, one of the resellers has acquired a whole pile of them, and is offering them for USD$1000 plus whatever add-ons you might want to include.

This is a reasonable price for an EV6-class Alpha.

#VSI has #OpenVMS #Alpha hobbyist licenses available at no cost, as well.

This while we're waiting for the VSI OpenVMS x86-64 compilers and related tooling to become available.
