Goodbye and thanks

We just switched off the last Alpha in our data-center, so I just wanted to say a huge thanks to this list for the support we've had using Alpha products for the last 10+ years (and a special thanks to Dr. Blinn)

Over the years we've gone through around 160 servers - from AS2100 through AS4100 to the smaller DS20/10 range, and ending up on DS15's. Amazing architecture, and proven stability.
