FS: Alpha Linux PC164LX Systems

I have three completely functional, well-kept Digital Alpha systems for
sale. No monitors. I have pix if you'd like to see that.

I would like to sell all of them together, but will consider selling
them separately.

All systems bought new together from DCG Computers, Inc. and have:
Dec Alpha PC164LX System
533MHZ Digital Alpha 21164 Processor, Rev 7.2 w 2MB cache
Alpha Bios V5.66
Milo V2.0.35 boot loader
256MB RAM
RH Linux 6.2 (Zoot) with a 2.2.14-6 kernel installed
Kingston 10/100 ethernet card (Dec 21140)
3.5" 1.44MB floppy
Keytronic 101 keyboard
PCI Bus
no sound card
Logitech Mouseman 3 button mouse
Symbios 53C895 SCSI controller and various quantities of (see table below):
IBM DDRS-34560D (4GB) SCSI disks
US Robotics 56K internal modem
Yamaha CRW4260 SCSI CD Writers
Toshiba SCSI CD-ROM players

The machines have some differences:

CD-Rom CD-Writer HD
Name SN Video Qty Qty Qty
Modem
------ ------ ------------------- ------ --------- --- ------
GP3 32279 Diamond Fire 2 0 1 no
GL1000 Pro

GP4 32278 Diamond Fire 2 0 1 no
GL1000 Pro

GP5 32154 Matrox Millenium 1 1 1 yes
II Pro 4MB

My asking price is $200 for all. Buyer can decide shipping details
(carrier, insurance, etc) and must pay the shipping cost.

Sincerely,
Jeff

I may have cash for that soon, and add them to some home cluster ...

Are they single processor ?
AGP available ?
PCI64 ?
PCI66 ?

In first place, I need to know your location. If you are in west Europe
(FR, Benelux, Es, It, De, Sw ...), I may pass by by car.

Shipping from other part of the world may be too much expensive for me.

If you are to sell seperate peaces, I am in need for one EV56 at 533MHz,
and would pay shipping for this.

I am not sure which EV your 21164 are ...

I would be ok for 70USD one processor, and maybe some RAM, if they use
pinout I need (70 excluding shipping of course). I may also negociate
the 53C895.

That leaves you 2 full computer, and spare peaces of the 3rd one you can
sell on ebay (HDD, CD, video, modem ...)

One of my server lacks a CPU and Mem ...

Single CPU, EV56, AGP/PCI64/PCI32/ISA: 0/2/2/2

Why don't you state the model? I might have missed it since my server
deletes them after a short period, but I didn't see any mention of what
models they were? I can tell you one thing, not many alpha's sport AGP. By
posting the model, it would be pretty easy for everyone to find out what it
does or doesn't have versus vague descriptions and the like.

To be honest, $200 for anything but the latest [built within the last few
years] would be too much. Will L G
