Way back in December, AMD, Samsung and Compaq announced a co-operative to design and manufacture a chipset codenamed "Caspian".
"Caspian will support both the Alpha and Athlon processors using the Alpha EV6 bus architecture common to both devices."
See the story on EBNEWS
But, since then I have yet to see any other news about this partnership.
Going from an Athlon to an Alpha would definately be a sweet upgrade! ;) - Although I doubt that it would be as easy as swapping a chip (seeing as the Athlon and the Alpha use seperate Slot/Socket combos).
Enjoy;
