[SunRescue] OT: SGI again

[Ken Hansen]

I can  - as it would only be able to put it down on top of a Sun box
that hasn't been powered up in almost a year (but that's just me ;^)

I was infrigued by the boxes, but what put me off was the info at one
of the sites listed for supporting info (r46000PC based systems do not
have the omph for any real video use, and these don't come with
cameras).

The price is great, the value (for a general *nix box) is good, but this
machine appears to be one of the underpowered versions of a great
line of workstations.

Besides, can you run Linux on it? ;^)
