DEC 3000 AXP was the name given to a series of computer workstations and servers, produced from 1992 to around 1995 by Digital Equipment Corporation. The DEC 3000 AXP series formed part of the first generation of computer systems based on the 64-bit Alpha AXP architecture. Supported operating systems for the DEC 3000 AXP series were DEC OSF/1 AXP (later renamed Digital UNIX) and OpenVMS AXP (later renamed OpenVMS).
The DEC 3000 AXP series was superseded in late 1994, with workstation models replaced by the AlphaStation line and server models replaced by the AlphaServer line.
Models
There were three DEC 3000 model families, codenamed Pelican, Sandpiper, and Flamingo. Within Digital, this led to the DEC 3000 series being affectionately referred to as "the seabirds".

This is a short Video about the DEC 3000 AXP by the Digital Equipment Corporation. There are very very few videos on Youtube about this machine, so I thought I should just create another one.
One source of information about the AXP architecture is Vol. 4 No. 4 of the Digital Technical Journal.

Dies ist ein kleines Video über die DEC 3000 AXP von der Digital Equipment Corporation. Es gibt kaum Informationen darüber im Netz, nur die offiziellen Handbücher und eine 15 seitige Beschreibung im Digital Technical Journal, die ein wenig ins Detail geht.
Es war nicht so einfach für mich dieses Video zusammen zu puzzeln, Ich hoffe es ist mir einigermaßen gelungen ^^

Peek inside a DEC 3000 model 500
Look inside this DEC 3000 model 500, one of the first computers to ever use the Alpha processor. With great effort, in more ways than one, I open up this machine to have a look. Can I also try to turn it on?

DEC AXP Alpha CPU logo animation with Blender, 21064
Here I animated the old Alpha CPU logo from Digital Equipment Corporation with Blender (eevee). It is one of my first animation projects. The CPU you can see in the animation is the 21064 Alpha CPU. The DEC 3000 computers from Digital are equipped with these CPUs, for example.
Maybe a little too much neon ^^ but I think it looks ok.
