Crafty runs just fine on the alpha. As does windows NT if that is your preferred operating system (Linux works great too as does Digital's unix version). It is _not_ Intel compatible... but you can write programs in any language you want, just as you can on an Intel box. I think they even have an emulator that lets you run Intel software on the alpha...
