Hey Benny!
BP> with is good as a dec_alpha ready from 29 yaers ago :)
I wouldn't know. 29 years ago there was only sparc(s) as far as I had access to. The mainframe was a dec but 32-bit VAX/VMS on there with a bunch of 9 track tape drives. I heard it took roughly 24 hours to boot the damn thing up. I never actually witnessed a bootup but the source of that information was reliable so I went along with it.
I got offered a 64-bit alpha - free but I had to pay the shipping - after they got sold to compaq. If I am not mistaken Tru64 was the OS of choice at that time. I think x86_64 is the only architecture that can run 32-bit libs/apps.
BP> only amiga needs it
Highly unlikely to ever see the light of day here. I don't do emulators. What for?
Life is good,
Maurice
