i've got a set of Personal Iris 4d/35s. one will run IRIX and the other will
be used for my porting effort to get NetBSD on them. i realize that pretty
much the entire burden of getting these things working is on my shoulders, but
i hope to at least generate some interest and get a little help. and i don't
really care if i never get the video working since if you're gonna have an SGI
box with video it really outta be running IRIX for that pretty GUI. :)
