NetBSD 1.3 (AXP33) #5: Mon Jan 19 13:27:02 PST 1998
    root@axp33.iaf.nl:/usr/src/sys/arch/alpha/compile/AXP33
Alpha PC AXPpci33 ("NoName"), 200MHz
8192 byte page size, 1 processor.
real mem = 33554432 (2072576 reserved for PROM, 31481856 used by NetBSD)
avail mem = 22716416
using 384 buffers containing 3145728 bytes of memory
mainbus0 (root)

etc.

In other words 1.3 works fine on my NoName. I think cjs used a pair of NoNames
