Speaking of energy and time of a tester. I'd like to know where these resources
should be directed from the arch point of view. Once I had a plan to buy as
many arches as I could get and run a farm of test boxes 8-) But that's hard
because of various reasons (money, time, room, energy). What arches need more
attention? Which are forgotten? Which are going away? For example does buying
an alphaserver DS 20 (hey - it's cheap) and running tests on it makes sense
these days?
