[geeks] SGI info

[Joshua D. Boyd]

I'm thinking $60 for the lot.  Two of the machines don't work, but it
would only take an afternoon to pick them up.  I know that Indys are that
cheap, but these machines could still be fun.  I rather like r3ks
personally.  The big ones take a lot of power.  Not sure what I'll do
about that.
