alpha == axp
DEC alpha axp? big bad 64 bit things that still beat up itaniums?  I 
have several. Though the binary built.. no video drivers built. I have a 
fairly heavy duty GL card in one (diamond fireGL 3000 pro), console 
likes it, X doesn't (thanks debian), but i should be able to run it 
ref_soft or ref_glx if i had the drivers..
