Hi, got a nice DEC 7000 with 4 CPUs 1GB of memory. AFAIK it is
the first Alpha model made. Same chassis as the VAX 7000.
This one works beautifully and sounds really nice. I had
OSF installed on it once (have the OSF CD with it, just
no license key.) I can't keep it though, because now I have
my VAX 6660 together and my last spot is gone.
I would like to trade this one for a VAX 40000 in a pedestal.
Don't you think that is a fair trade?

This box is in Indianapolis, IN. If you come here you get to see
my collection of VAX6460 with vector processors and an 11/780.
You may even get a VAX6400 for free and another smaller alpha
(DEC3000 system) as a thank you gift.
This one is heavy. However, there are at least two ways to load
it: either liftgate truck, or a u-haul low-floor truck or
trailer. The low-floor trucks are really nice: cheap to rent
and easy to load (we just lay the machine on its side.)
