Origin 2000s... are about... the COOLEST machine you can get that is the
friendliest! The SGI Challenge XL and Origin 2000 systems were not overly
heavy boxes, they were built much lighter than IBM "big iron" and Sun
boxes. This isn't to say the O2K is uber cheap, it's just a bit more
cuddly. And it looks sweet too.
I have one in storage (with the AS/400 and Cray J932se). The Cray makes me
cry it's so heavy. The IBM is the same, it's just not as big. The Origin
tho, it's my buddy. It's movable by mortals.
