Well.. depends on the job, etc you want on it. A 667 Mhz alpha is the equiv speed of a 166 to 300 Mhz Pentium box (if I remember the building speeds on the old alphas we had).
I think that this is an EV6 Alpha, in which case it is about the speed of a 2.0 GHz Pentium 4.

When the alpha stuff was brought up on the list recently regarding the "need", I asked and there was some productive info given by you (I think it was) or someone else as to what to get "minimum"
:-)
That machine was a candidate according to the specs that were given.
I was bidding on it and was going to buy it for CentOS yet noone got back to me on the list fast enough so I didn't continue bidding...
Also, noone said if CentOS recv'd a machine yet.
Has anyone called HP or have an contacts in HP to get a machine donated?
Just like God has the biggest hands of all to bless people with... HP has bigger hands than I do in helping CentOS with an Alpha.
