I have lots of Alpha hardware here but no Linux and no OpenBSD and it is
all old:

    Alphaserver 4100 running OpenVMS 7.1 (my workstation)
    Whitebox DEC PC164 running FreeBSD 5.something (semi-retired)
    Whitebox DEC PC164
    Whitebox UP2000 with a Samsung(?) motherboard
    DEC AXP150 running Tru64 Unix 4.0F

At work I have:

    2 Compaq Alphaserver DS20 running Tru64 Unix 5.1
    Compaq Alphaserver DS25 running Tru64 Unix 5.1
    Compaq Alphaserver ES45 running Tru64 Unix 5.0

All of these will remain in service for another one to three years and then
I can take them all and create a lovely OpenVMS cluster.

I have documentation and firmware for all the above which I would be like
to make available to anybody who might find a use for it.
