“Compaq plans by the end of the month to ship a new low-end
server, the AlphaServer DS10, a single-processor system running the
new EV6 21264 Alpha processor…”
“The system uses a 466-MHz processor, has four PCI slots for a
capacity of 29 GB internal storage, and 64 MB to 2 GB memory. The
system is designed to provide fast I/O, with a 1.3-GB-per-second,
128-bit-wide pipe between the CPU and memory. The server also has
two 10/100 Ethernet ports…”
“The new server will run either Linux or Compaq’s Tru64 Unix
operating system. Compaq plans to port its C++, FORTRAN and C
compilers onto Linux to enable a single set of source code for both
Linux and Tru64.”
