As for Compaq killing Alpha and PA-RISC, that was driven by its

Are you sure you didn't mean MIPS? NT/SPARC would be the only port of a Windows
variant to a big endian platform...

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,


I still use an NT4 cd as a coaster and it mentions intel, alpha, mips, and powerpc. In the case of MIPS and PPC, it ran in LE mode. To my knowledge there was never a PA-RISC port.
