"Alpha Point" computing is if you spawn off a new universe and perform an infinite number of computations during the infinite energy densities of that universe's Big Bang. "Alpha Line" computing, is if you transfer your computing patterns to yet another universe as soon as the first one starts to cool down, and so on. An Alpha Line could also refer to a larger set of universes spawned by an Alpha-Point-based civilization that needed to reproduce exponentially rather than just hopping from one universe to another.
