I can imagine the reverse being more common though - I worked at a shop around that time where we had a handful of very expensive Alpha NT 4 (and VMS and...) boxes, and a lot of x86 NT boxes. I could imagine the magic smoke being let out of an Alpha and having to drop the drive into an x86 box for data recovery.
