Multiwave Direct Digital Alpha

The Digital Alpha is by no means intended to be a Home Computing system, while it is still very competitive with the Pentium II in performance, it lags behind in compatibility with x86 applications. The user base of the Alpha platform is growing rapidly, and Multiwave has proved to the world that it isn't difficult to make a down right decent system out of just about any processor, unfortunately this Multiwave System won't be finding its way into the homes of many average PC users.

Those that need the power of an Alpha will most likely stick to the more professional models, like the 21164 or the newly released 21264, the 21164PC was a nice try at the Desktop x86 market, unfortunately it was a failed attempt by Digital to gain a portion of the Intel pie.
