<P align=center>AN INTRODUCTION TO THE DEC ALPHA</P>
<P align=center>By: Ronald V. Maggio</P>
<P> </P></B>
<P> Now lets get started! Here are the web
sites, which I have gathered that contain the information on this
subject. I will also add comments as needed. I have some other site links
but they are closed, and the information I have saved as files. If you are
interested in those files that I have saved from these sites, and files from
sites that are hard to reach let me know and I’ll send them to you as an
attachment. I will also state here if you have saved info as a file from
sites that are no longer could you please e-mail it to me as an attachment.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>This is the list of sites that are still around:</P><FONT size=3>

of the web sites mentioned on the disk are no longer available. </P><FONT
