i remember reading about alpha in pc magazine when i was a kid. don't remember much but the whole article was like hoooooly poo poo its so fast!!!! MS was making very serious noises about the portability of NT. netware was still a thing. it was not at all clear that intel would dominate the server market 10 years later

I have a Motorola PowerStack DT604-133, a PowerPC Reference Platform (PReP) system that shipped with Windows NT; Motorola didn�t sell very many, because they were focused on selling the (ATX!) logic boards to other vendors

unfortunately I think the floppy is busted, the NT4 boot floppy that I created won�t boot

I did manage to get it to request the NetBSD kernel via tftp but it crashed soon after, I suspect the kernel is built for PowerPC 604e and not PowerPC 604 or needs to be loaded at a specific address or something like that
