Poor SGI. I used to love their website back in the 90s.

It's strange to think that alternative architectures were possible though and could get such a foothold in some industries. The specificity is mind-blowng. Everything is "PC"s today.

It does blow my mind that back in the 90's that companies were rolling their own silicon and OS's without being absolute giants.

Huh, I had no idea sgi was not pc hardware. I just assumed they made PCs with their own OS
