I don't know of a `Linux/AXP-Tru64-Howto,' (other than the docs on
alphalinux.org) but I can tell you that since I started working at Wolfram
Research several months ago, one of my main projects has been the
Mathematica port to Alpha Linux. Internal test results look *REALLY*
good, and benchmark statistics blow away all our other platforms (of
course, we are running the test suite on an XP1000). I'm not supposed to
leak any time frame, but I can say that the Alpha Linux port should be
included in the next major Mathematica release.
