It was posted by an Alpha87a owner disgruntled over service with one of the 
past iterations of Alpha ownership.  His site is no longer available.  I used 
this method (and his memory dump script) to store the memory settings for my 
three Alpha 87a's but YMMV.

I have looked though the archives for this information and I could not find it. 
Can you share the procedure?
