Now, as much as I'm tired of hearing Galaxy this and Galaxy that... Alpha has a nice sound to it.
Does it mean as 'first' or as 'top dog'... or as 'before beta' (i.e. not even ready for testing?). I jest. But it looks like this might lead them into the latest 'evolution of Galaxy Design' (as one of their team puts it
