    I bought my first SGI back in 1989, and PI 35, which was outdated by the Indigo 1 before it was even delivered (all for only $36k). These days several SGI boxes collect dust on my floor as I get quite astounding performance out of $100 PC cards.

    I continue to be amazed that SGI still exists.
