I'm using 7.1RC since it was available on ftp and I've 
found it to be the most stable *nix for Alpha. (I had more 
crashes when I used Tru64 5.1 as a workstation). Much more 
stable than RH7.0, FreeBSD 4.3 and Debian/Woody (6 months 
ago)!
Remember to use XFree86 v3.3.6 and Kernel 2.2.19! 4.0.x and 
2.4.x are very unstable on alpha. I haven't tested XF 4.1.x 
yet though...

I really want to go back to using Debian though, once it 
gets a bit stable again (maybe it is already?)
