I'm not sure if $4995 is cheap, but I found a Microwave's motherboard with
Harvard architecture and PCI, designed for Alpha 21164. It is likely
possible to put the board inside a usual PC box together with typical PCI
cards. What is interesting, Linux was mentioned (in their advertisment) as
one of OS's the board is able to run. The price I mentioned concerns the
entry level versions (275 MHz). Top model (according to Microwave's
materials) achieves 800 MFlops on 400 MHz. Nice toy, isn't it?
