Ummm... If it's as much as a good Pentium ($3000-$4000), sign me up!
That's the second-fastest Alpha in productions -- definatly low end.
Come to think of it, I remember hearing the JUST the chip cost $3000 or
so...  I'd ask your dealer to check on that.  A 166 MHz 21064 I'd
understand, but not a 266 21164!  Maybe he misplaced the decimal on that
price...

Good luck Alpha shopping...
