Hardware Today: Has RISC Gotten Risky? 

http://www.serverwatch.com/hreviews/article.php/3525901

 

......
The AlphaServer is being dropped, along with its RISC chip, as HP
transitions OpenVMS users to Integrity servers. The company designed 
the
code in the latest version of OpenVMS to run well on both kinds of
hardware. The HP 9000 server family will soon be history, too. Again, HP
designed the HP-UX11i operating system to run on either the 9000 
series
or Integrity and has issued detailed migration plans and software
transition kits to move customers onto the newer hardware. 

.....

So will recalcitrant users of HP's RISC-based processors be left high
and dry? It appears not. Danielsen emphasizes that the HP 9000 
Superdome
and midrange servers can be purchased through 2008, with service and
support continuing until 2013. Similarly, HP 9000 entry-class servers
can be purchased through 2007, with service and support continuing 
until
2012. Overall, the RISC line will be supported until 2012 (for the
entry-class) and 2013 (for the Superdome and midrange lines). A similar
support pathway exists for AlphaServers
