If you go to http://www.zdnet.com/netbuyer/
click on desktop systems
then click on search and compare
then under "processor type" choose "Alpha"
then click at the bottom "search"
and you'll see the cheaper computer at $1975 (no monitor included).

But then again, the question still remains, do computer chess programs
play well on this type of computer?  This computer wasn't meant to be
your regular personal computer.  It was meant for networking.
