I know what you mean. I keep a VAX 4000-100A for VAX
stuff, an Alphastation 500/500 as a workstation, and
my main server is an Alphaserver 4100 5/466. I don't
think I'd want to have something much bigger than the
AS4100. An ES40 would not be bad. It's the same
size as a rack-mounted AS4100. The only thing to do
is wait until they come down in price.
