What's your specialty?

It will probably be the next Alpha I go for. The big thing is, it really
needs to have a U2W SCSI controller in it. Of course it will probably be
quite some time before they drop in price to the point where I feel I can
afford one. My other choice would probably be an XP1000. At this time
however my DEC PWS 433au is sufficient for my OpenVMS needs.
