Sure.  Of course.  But resources are limited, as are our lives, and 
priorities have to be set.  After VSI gets VMS running on x86, and kit 
is at least as easily available as Alphas are today, keeping Alpha up to 
date would be WAY down on my list of priorities.

Yes, I miss the VAX.  I can no longer fit into those jeans where 
everyone said I looked like Robert Plant.  Sic transit gloria mundi.
