One of the places I used to work - The John Innes Centre 
(www.jic.bbrsc.ac.uk) they were using DEC Alpha boxes when I started but 
as Linux gained market share they saw the benefits of moving over to 
Linux (RedHat 7, 8 and 9 at the time).  I wouldn't be surprised if the 
majority of the Alpha boxes have been replaced with Intel/AMD based 
workstations.
