My I2's just sort of sitting there are the moment because I could really 
use something* to give it a purpose (it's a Max Impact system with 2 x 4GB 
disks and 384MB of memory, so it was a pretty good spec for the day). 
Originated with Cray, but (unsurprisingly) they did everything via remote 
NFS mounts, so there's not really anything interesting on the disks.

* demos, applications, whatever... something that makes good use of the 
graphic abilities, anyway. When I last looked it seemed that there wasn't 
much out there which wasn't still considered commercial software, and so 
unobtainable without the original media.

cheers
