>A co-worker of mine just bought a VAXstation 4000/90 and a DEC 3000/400. She wants to use one of them as a Mail Server running OpenVMS. The VAX looks to have 104MB, the Alpha looks to only have 96MB. Any idea on which would work best for her? Part of what has me concerned is the lack of RAM on the Alpha. If she uses the VAX, it will probably end up running V7.3, if the Alpha probably V7.2-1H1. DECwindows won't be loaded, which will help get the Alpha down to a better memory footprint.

Make that a VAXstation 4000/60.
