8 CPU Alpha, 8GB RAM and 4GB HDD. When we ran out of HDD
Yow!!! Where was this? I'm just curious. Very, very curious.
The SGI tin was at LONI, UCLA. Looks like they have also added
Opteron and Xeon pizza boxes to their list:

The sad Alpha with its miniscule HDD was at the CS department
at Melbourne Uni. So much as changed on the CS website that I
can no longer find the IT resources web page. Back then, the
CS website was hosted on an ancient NetBSD Alpha box that did
not even have enough resources to run PHP3! Now have a full
blown CMS! I'm showing my age.
It's true that the world down-under is really upside down.
Australia?
Yup!
