hp has 1.4.1 for vms and tru64, but not linux. the best i found is 1.3.1 from compaq's old site. kaffe is unusably slow and single threaded. unfortunetly, the compaq fastvm isn't. netbean's menus on my ultra5 running solaris (333mhz/2megs) are way faster! an ultra5 should not beat a dual 833mhz/4meg alpha. 8( my year old, not so fast pc at work, running sun's hotspot, also kicks my alpha's ass.
is there any hope? or do i just save up for an smp opteron (and wait for linux support to stabilize)? i assume hp has little interest in linux/alpha. -- Tom Vier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DSA Key ID 0xE6CB97DA
