ssh'd to a live alpha server at work last year. there were some files on there I wanted to look at.

the machine has to be at least 20 years old at this point. but it feels fast. bash. find. xargs grep. command line stuff very responsive.

it felt fast back then. i do remember that.

Alphas were incredible when they first came out. The one I have is a DS10, probably also 20 years old-ish. It still feels responsive.

It was a DS-20
