What I (and B.G.) am wondering about, are the various
recommendations that one should use a PC to be able
to conveniently (!) load an alpha workstation with its
regular software. This from a crowd who constantly
preaches the superiority of VMS.

I think the reason for that is that they expect a person to already have
a Windows box with a terminal emulator on it, making it VERY cheap.
Personally, I have a VT420 connected to my VAX server (with dead disks),
and an Alphastation which is currently missing a keyboard adapter
(USB-to-PS/2), so I *could* run it just fine.
