Interesting question. I think that the sirius may be usable in
video<->memory mode (as opposed to graphics<->video mode).
On the other hand, it would be quite amusing to stick a VME SBC with USB
in there and write a driver to talk back and forth. I wonder how hard
it is to write a VME driver for Irix.
