   Hi!

      If i  remember right, there exist an  Alpha port of NetBSD. I've read
   in the  german UnixOpen magazine that there  is a completely new port of
   LINUX for th Alpha hardware.

      Who can explain, why  the developers at  DEC  begin from scratch  and
   don't choose NetBSD? 

   Lars
