While we're on the subject of Alpha's, i'm looking to purchase an inexpensive one. "Old work" found an Avanti 233MHz for like $300 or something but I can't find them anywhere. Everyone on Ebay thinks they can charge upwards of $800 for Alpha systems (usually the description says "I don't know what this thing is"). I checked dcponline.com but they didn't seem to have anything in my price range.
