I've found that most people will recognize the name Linux/Alpha, although
Linux/DEC-Alpha would probably be fairly good too. So, my suggestions
for name (although, don't necessarily take this as an endorsement of the
idea as a whole) would be comp.os.linux.linux-alpha or
comp.os.linux.dec-alpha.

I got a coffee mug from Cray Research when they moved out. Now I can
drink my coffee while doing 63 other, unrelated tasks.
