- This question has been bugging me for a while and so I finally decided to post
- it. The new chip from DEC (Alhpa) is going to run Windows NT along with VMS
- and UNIX. If a 'Alpha' PC is running Windows NT, will this PC be faster than a
- 'Pentium' PC running Windows. I mean, are these CPU's comparable...? I am
- assuming that the Alpha PC will be better and faster... Any comments..
- Benchmarks..
- Have a great new year everyone..
